Social media can push us to the dark side, with negative content. A new study finds watching inspiring videos for just 3 minutes a day is on par with meditation for boosting mood and reducing stress.
Got 3 minutes? This habit may help boost hope and reduce stress

Read this whole thread baseball friends.
Feels good to pull for a team that’s carrying a nation’s hopes, but it feels astonishingly good to cheer for a group of guys who care about one another. It feels almost revolutionary, and whether or not they win this thing, that’s what I’ll be left with when this is over and the winter descends. 14/
