The Science of Leisure (You're Probably Doing It Wrong) | Arthur Brooks

Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” talks to Arthur Brooks about why modern technology has created dopamine-driven phone addiction that prevents people from truly disconnecting; the science of leisure and why meaningful time should deepen relationships, spirituality, and lifelong learning instead of endless scrolling; why boredom and time away from social media can boost creativity, reflection, and happiness; how taking time off without a phone can reset the brain and improve well-being; and much more.
