This was a great free listen ...

Quite informative ... so writing and reading are relaxing. I especially liked that daydreaming is too. Constructive at that I would hope.

Great interview about REST

I had no idea who Claudia was, but she gave good ideas on rest. Her interview was engaging and interesting.
