Self-Care Sunday: Screen Time and Digital Detoxing

Self-Care Sunday: Screen Time and Digital Detoxing

 

According to a new study, the average person will spend up to 34 years of their life looking at screens? We have to admit; we were pretty surprised at that statistic too. But when you think about how many times you are staring into a monitor, a smartphone, television, or laptop, it makes sense. 

You are rushing to work. Or, if you work from home, docking your phone near your desk for the long commute from the kitchen to your office (#Pandemic Life). How many messages do you get every day on your phone? Guess because the number of interruptions or distractions you live with every day from your devices will surprise you.

That means everything from messages, news, and social media posts to private texts from work, or from your family and friends. And it is not that we are incapable of keeping up with the constant barrage of digital media. It’s the cost of our physical and mental health that should concern us. 

In the United States, our socio-cultural habits already limit exercise. 
Time outdoors is rare when you could stay in the comfort of your own home. And our media consumption has grown during the pandemic. A recent Nielsen survey states that media consumption may have increased by over 60% in the United States during the Covid-19 health emergency. An increase that also correlates with an exponential rise in anxiety and depression rates.
