5 minute walk & talk: Manoush's journey to spend less time on her laptop

Daniel Hertzberg

Today, Manoush takes a solo walk and shares what she does to spend less time scrolling, more time moving, including the story of forcing herself (and her kids) to take breaks. PLUS, she explains how setting aside our devices and allowing our minds to wander helps us tap into our most creative thinking. Join Manoush for this 5 minute walk and hear her (sometimes strange) internal monologue on the challenges of trying to get people moving.

We'd love to hear from you! Send us a voice memo or email us at BodyElectric@npr.org.
