You don't need a digital detox like you don't need New Year's resolutions!
Detoxing misses opportunities to connect with the best parts of technology.
When we focus on the cognitions, content and context of our tech use we can curate a digital world and boundaries that aligns and nourishes us.
No point swearing off a platform cold turkey without a reentry plan. .

A won't shift underlying wonky habits that drive our dependence of checking and scrolling devices. If you want to shift away from the flattening,numbing and greying effects of mindless thumb miles we need to get clear on our motivations, find meaningful replacements and curate our online experiences much more fiercely.
Just like fad diets, digital detox attempts mean you focus on avoiding a behaviour rather than looking at what that behaviour might give you/the need it meets. Try instead your majesty!

I've been working with young people (in various capacities) since 2003. There's so much work to do to deeply genuinely support them, and while the is a step we can't rest on our laurels and pat ourselves on the back just yet. The folks who suggested there's a few better paths to wholistic than this approach are the ones who'll be standing by to support families through the unintended consequences.

THE COUNTDOWN → bite-sized tips for parents and young people to get genuinely ready for the social media age restrictions, together.

Rehearse a few calm scripts together. Discuss gentle ways to start up conversations that don’t feel like an attack or dismissal, so that kids can lean in more to talking about it.
Use the “I notice, I imagine, I feel” framework to gently lean into the conversations and use a feelings wheel to explore the underlying emotions.
