About this listen

 In the age of smartphones and high-speed internet, we are constantly connected. Our lives revolve around screens, from work emails to social media updates, from online shopping to binge-watching TV shows.

We are living in a digital world, where every moment is captured, every thought tweeted, and every event live-streamed.

But what if there's a downside to this constant connectivity? What if our digital devices are not just tools for communication and entertainment but also invisible chains that bind us?

This book peels back the shiny veneer of the digital age to reveal a less glamorous truth.

The concept of 'Digital Detox' might seem alien or even absurd in today's hyper-connected world. But as you delve deeper into this book, you'll discover that it's not about completely abandoning technology. Instead, it's about finding a balance and learning to use technology without letting it use you.
The strategies laid out in this book are practical and easy to follow. They don't need you to move to a remote cabin in the woods or throw your smartphone into the ocean. Instead, they focus on small changes that can greatly impact your relationship with technology.
You'll learn how reducing screen time can improve your mental health and boost your productivity. You'll discover how unplugging from digital devices can help you reconnect with yourself and the world around you.
