Happiness Lessons of The Ancients: The Day of Rest

Sarah Hurwitz worked 24/7 at Harvard, and barely took
time off as she built a career in DC writing speeches for first
Hillary Clinton and then Michelle Obama. Sarah would even take
her cell phone into the shower.


But as she explored the teachings of Judaism, she began
to appreciate the vital importance of the
commandment to observe a day of rest, and found that
sometimes doing less made her happier.


Sarah is author of Here All Along: Finding Meaning, Spirituality,
and a Deeper Connection to Life in Judaism (After Finally
Choosing to Look There).
