After a 1 minute recap of the video, I’ll be available for questions on this topic or any other related to Mental Health.
- Digital Detox and Mental Health
There is a wealth of personal anecdotes that digital detoxes can improve concentration, boost mood, and decrease anxiety, but in addition to these compelling stories, researchers are compiling studies that document that getting away from cell phones and/or social media for as little as a week can improve subjective and objective measures of attention, mood, and well-being. Complete avoidance of all digital input isn't necessary for benefits - as little as an hour a day in reducing immersion in the digital world can improve functioning of the brain.
