What It Means When Your Daydreaming Goes Astray

Most people engage, especially when we are idle, in the seemingly harmless reverie of daydreaming. Letting your mind escape from the humdrum of your daily existence to a more pleasant set of circumstances seems not only harmless but, at times, necessary. Perhaps you're stuck in a long checkout line after stocking up at your favorite big box store. You've checked all your texts; your phone provides no relief.

Why Your Provider May Be Using AI for Documentation

A treatment plan must be present in every visit note. Diagnoses listed in the chart must exactly match the billing codes. At the same time, patients expect and deserve our undivided attention. But balancing genuine human connection with the ever-growing checklist of documentation requirements is nearly impossible. Add to that the reality that we are people too, with families and demanding lives outside the office, and the strain becomes clear.

As one might expect from the filmmaker who coined the term "ecstatic truth," this new volume - translated by Michael Hofmann - is an inquiry into what "true" means in a world where falsehood is ever-present.

News has never been more accessible but for some, that's exactly the problem. Flooded with information and relentless updates, more and more people around the world are tuning out. The reasons vary: for some it's the sheer volume of news, for others the emotional toll of negative headlines or a distrust of the media itself. In online forums devoted to mindfulness and mental health, people discuss how to step back, from setting limits to cutting the news out entirely.

Increasingly, some individuals are turning not to other people, but to artificial intelligence (AI) companions for a sense of connection and belonging. [3]
