🙏🏼voice was so tender, that I fell asleep
try another time. Interesting concept!

That was really good. A perfect way to bring awareness to our own personal ways we use our devices and then how we feel about our patterns. Well done. My knowledge was there before but my awareness is different now. Thank you.

Beautiful course. Thank you.

Bookmarked and downloaded so I can revisit this often. Thank you!

I recently finished listening to an audiobook (commute time well spent) on digital decluttering. I am taking advantage of a minimum of three weeks' enforced rest post-surgery (today is day two home after a six day stay in the hospital), so it will definitely be an act of self-care and compassion to release so much of this which is taking up precious moments of my life.

My mother came in from out of state to assist me during these first two weeks. We are visiting and talking, working through identifying people in old family photographs before scanning and donating/gifting them to other family, doing genealogy work on our family tree (I am a serious hobbyist studying to be a professional genealogist; my mother is an academically trained historian), and so on. Incredibly more fulfilling and relationship-building than if I were to be buried in social media (rare over the last 9+ months).

Digital detox is so important, done in a sustainable way aligned with your own personal needs. Insight Timer, audiobooks, photos, two main relaxing games, a couple spirutual-oriented apps plus a few pure science/reference apps, email, music, and productivity tools are pretty much all I have on my phone now and it is an incredibly liberating feeling.

Thank you so much for sharing this vitally important practice with us all. I look forward to repeated listening. I see the light in you. 🤲❤️🤲

Thank you. So many moments! So many opportunities. Also, knowing that being present can snap us out of the fixation. Maybe taking a moment to acknowledge the gratitude for the technology and what it affords us, then setting it down. Maybe easier said than done. But like meditation, the "goal" is not perfection, simply noticing and bringing attention back to the breath, the moment. And with practice, that happens more and more. Thank you for the inspiration. May you know peace.
