Avoid "endless day-to-day shallowness"
A quote from this NEJM article:
"Socrates underscored the perils of an unexamined life. Yet for some physicians, a closely examined professional life would force a painful recognition of what’s missing. Robert Pirsig, whose philosophical writing focused on quality and values, crystallized the problem decades ago: “We’re in such a hurry most of the time we never get much chance to talk. The result is a kind of endless day-to-day shallowness, a monotony that leaves a person wondering years later where all the time went and sorry that it’s all gone.”"
The author of the article lists a few interventions he had tried at this workplace in the second article below. Many of those don't seem to reach the root of the problem though.

Bad traffic has wide reaching health implications including nighttime domestic abuse
From the NYTimes:
Brutal commute toll: to save 1 minute of time spent in traffic, people would trade away 5 minutes of any other leisure activity
Extreme evening traffic on highways (double the usual time) increased the incidence of nighttime domestic violence by 9%
How do deal with this: “Throughout life, mindfulness, healthy eating, sleeping and exercise, and hobbies that blow of steam all help”, according to Rebecca Mooney.

How the ultra-rich deal with stress
From the Guardian: Burned-out billionaires are taking extended multimillion-dollar 'sabbaticals' to recharge:
A 40-year-old tech CEO, fresh off selling his multimillion-dollar business, embarked on an extended world tour, visited 66 countries over two years via private jet. The trip included learning to hunt with a bow and arrow with the San people in the Kalahari Desert and filming a documentary in South Africa – and it cost "well into the seven figures."
"It could be a couple of million dollars to take your family around the world with a teacher in tow."
These wealthy clients are looking for an escape, and some want that escape to be educational as well. "Often they want to get some sense of a back-to-basics lifestyle and learn the skills of our ancestors, like how to hunt and cook their own food," Barber told the Guardian.
