There is a book -- I wish I could remember its name or the author -- that explains why walking away is the best thing a person can do to rejuvenate the mind. (If you know the name, please let me know. I heard the author on Fresh Air several years ago -- I was in my car -- and I forgot to follow up!)(less)
