FALL 2018
IT'S HARD TO RESIST. You’re in front of the computer, feeling burned out, when suddenly some piece of clickbait (“You Won’t Believe These 1990s Wardrobe Malfunctions!”) catches your eye. You know the link that’s luring you is at best a waste of time and at worst a gateway to salacious content or a computer virus or both – yet the temptation can be strong.
To stop the impulse, try moving your body instead of your mouse: Stand and stretch, take a stroll, maybe say hello to an actual human. When you get back to your screen, check out the latest 3-Minute Retreat from Loyola Press, which offers a respite of meditative prayer along with beautiful images and an uplifting soundtrack. Instead of feeling like a chump for clicking on trash, you’ll end up feeling closer to God and better about yourself and the world.
