Did you know that October 24 is Take Back Your Time Day?

According to their website, TAKE BACK YOUR TIME is a major U.S./Canadian initiative to challenge the epidemic of overwork, over-scheduling and time famine that now threatens our health, our families and relationships, our communities and our environment.

Did you know that Americans work an average of 9 weeks more than our European counterparts? While being industrious and hardworking are good things, we’ve gotten to the point of ridiculousness, jeopardizing our health, families and spiritual lives.

One thing the organizers recommend is to make a special effort to have dinner with your family tonight. They even have a coupon for free salad with your pizza at Panera bread! Check it out: http://www.timeday.org/

And for inspiration for taking back the dinner hour, take a look at this video about the importance of breaking bread with family: Dinner Video
