Ever Visited Some Distant Recesses of Your Mind?

If you have a smartphone, then you are likely to suffer from ADD. Whether it's constantly responding to texts or just scrolling through your news feed every hour even though you know there's nothing to see or just getting bogged down by the influx of official emails, we are all too preoccupied with being preoccupied.
In comes virtuoso travel writer Pico Iyer explaining the virtues of sitting still. Something we Indians have known or practiced all along but somehow forgot about. Check out his fabulous, sensible TED talk where he reveals that the best place he ever visited was the one he was presently at. After that stop reading my blog, switch off your Wi-Fi, put the phone on flight mode and have a digital Sabbath.
