Labor Day
Dear Patient,
Today is Labor Day, a day to celebrate workers and honor the contributions of the labor movement. It’s a good day to pause for a moment and be grateful for things like a 40-hour work week, workplace safety, and paid time off.
In our modern connected world, it can be difficult to take a break from laboring. Work is often just a click or a screen tap away. Stepping away from work nowadays requires thoughtful intention, advance planning, and discipline.
Maybe today can be a day when you practice. Just try it out. Close your laptop, silence your phone, resist the temptation to check notifications. You might like it. You might even find that it makes you a better worker. You might feel happier.
There’s more to life than work. Happy Labor Day.
Love and gratitude,
Your Acupuncturist
