REBOOT

-

Three ways to bid your unhealthy habits a fond farewell and hit reset.

1. After being plagued by the Sunday Night Sads, journalist Katrina Onstad sought to explore the culture of overworkin­g in her latest book, The Weekend Effect, which examines the benefits of scaling back on incessant work demands (from overbooked iCals to endless domestic duties) and returning to a tuned-out, recharged weekend.

2. Renew Life First Cleanse ($25) contains turmeric, 2017’s buzziest antiinflam­matory herb, which is used to treat abdominal pain, bloating and loss of appetite. It is free of laxative herbs, such as senna and cascara. The Americanba­sed brand claims you won’t be plagued by the typical flulike symptoms more aggressive cleanses can induce.

3. Moment is an app that tracks the hours you spend on your smartphone and allows you to set limits so you don’t overindulg­e in swiping/creeping. It gives not-so-subtle reminders (often in angry red font) such as “Get back to your life” and can even be programmed to actually turn off your phone—if you can fathom the horror.
