Take eight minutes today and call your best friend. You may say you don’t have time between work demands, carpools, and a stop at Trader Joe’s or ShopRite to pick up dinner. But you will feel less harried and happier if you call. There’s a secret power in an eightminute phone call. You and your bestie can catch up on meddlesome mothers, your middle child who suddenly insists on riding shotgun every time, and your teens who routinely stay up past midnight. Plus, you can plan a coffee or happy hour visit. You’ll smile, breathe deeply, and feel lighter when you hang up.
