Putting our screens down isn’t going to be easy, they are obviously hugely addictive to us. But, if they’re a problem for you currently, you can make some simple steps in the right direction today.
-Put your phone in the glove box when you arrive at the restaurant.
-Leave it at home when you go for a walk.
-Enforce a ‘no phones at the table’ or/and ‘no phones in the bedroom’ rule at home.
-Turn off notifications.
-Set App Time Limits.
-Turn your phone off at the same time everyday and leave it off.
-Notice when you unconsciously reach for your device and make a decision to leave it where it is.
Use screens the way a moderate drinker might choose to use alcohol. Mindfully, in moderation and with an awareness that too much is bad for your health.
