Whether you celebrate Passover, Easter, or Life’s renewals this time of year, take a day this weekend to “power down” and “stop and smell the roses”.
Reboot, a non-profit group of Jewish artists in search of a modern way to observe a weekly day of rest, provide us with a guide to do so. The guide is inherent in Reboot’s creative project The Sabbath Manifesto , which is designed to slow down lives in an increasingly hectic world.
Following are some of the core prinicples from the Sabbath Manifesto’s Provisional Guide for Observing a Weekly Day of Rest.
- Avoid technology.
- Connect with loved ones.
- Nurture your health.
- Get outside.
- Find silence.
- Give back.
Reboot also, this year, initiated a National Day of Unplugging. Thousands unplugged from cell phones, ipods, computers, etc. from Sundown, Friday, March 19 to Sundown, Saturday, March 20. The people in this YouTube video tell us how and why they unplug, or. . . not.
