Finding Joy Again Through Small Changes

You are here: Home / Archive / Feature Stories / Finding Joy Again Through Small Changes
Published: January 26, 2020 by VPR Producer

We speak with two authors about the importance of taking small steps each day to bring back positivity and refocus in your life. This could mean something as simple as taking 15 minutes to do some deep-breathing, reading or catch up with a friend by phone.
