Do you return from vacation feeling like you need a vacation? Many Americans do. This month, Take Back Your Time launches the Take Back Your Vacation Initiative as part of the fight against overwork and time famine in the U.S. We need to advocate not only for guaranteed paid vacation time, but for education about how we can choose to spend it!
This is not just a vacation issue, but a free-time issue in general. When we have any amount of time away from work, are our experiences fulfilling? During free-time or vacation, are we choosing and planning thoughtful and high quality leisure experiences that are good for ourselves and good for others? I am certain we can do better.
