Pay attention to the tempo of your life. Are you always rushing, adding more into your already full schedule, or feeling like you need to keep moving faster just to keep up? In the 1930s, Carl Jung issued a warning against the accelerating pace of American life and reminded us that rest is essential for a healthy and well-balanced life.
