About the Summary

Editor’s Note: This book is a compassionate and practical exploration of mental health, encouraging readers to recharge their “internal batteries” through mindfulness, connection, and everyday habits that support emotional and physical well-being.

 

In his book, Recharge: Boosting Your Mental Battery, One Conversation at a Time, David Ko argues that if we paid as much attention to our inner energy levels as we do to our phones, we would be much better, both mentally and physically. Working for Calm, the company behind the well-known mindfulness app, Ko had the opportunity to understand how technology can be both friend and foe when it comes to our mental health. Ko argues that we need to give up the stigma of talking about mental health issues at the workplace, and use technology to help us monitor our mental wellbeing, instead of letting it add up to our stress levels.
