You won’t succeed with a digital detox unless you replace the things you are removing from your life with other things you enjoy. You also need to become comfortable being bored. It’s an opportunity to let your mind wander.
@ericgregorich wise advice. I wonder if I’ve been following it straight, because I have a Kindle where I read my books. It’s not analogue but this is because I simply have no further space where to store physical books at home. Does that still count as detox?
@danielsantos I use a Kindle also. I don’t see it as a problem, but I’m no expert.
I think it’s the distracting apps on the phone that are the primary culprit.
@ericgregorich I agree. At home my Kindle has two main advantages besides allowing me to collect books without using physical space — first, no distracting extra apps; second, no concurrence because my kids have no interest in “such a dull gadget”: no colors, no motion, no games… only boring text 😂😂
