David Sedaris is my sanity insurance.

I've always delighted in the stories and essays of David Sedaris, but if I'd never read Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim or When You Are Engulfed in Flames, I would pick up Let's Explore Diabetes With Owls on the basis of its title.

Whether it's a short stroll through your neighborhood or a long vigorous hike in the countryside, this TED-Ed video explains why walking is lauded as a cure for everything from boredom to slightly-too-tight jeans.
