Digital Detox
- Establish a tech-free morning. Make sure the phone isn’t the first thing you reach for in the morning. Prioritize yourself and your morning mindset instead.
- Set social media boundaries. Track your screen time and set a limit to how long you can stay on an app. This skills limit mindless scrolling.

- Pick up a book instead of your phone. Mindless scrolling drains your mental energy. Pick up a book instead!
