Do you feel like you're always staring at your phone? A recent study in the US shows that American adults, on average, spend around four and a half hours on their phones every day!
How can we break the cycle of phone addiction and get back to doing those things we love? Sandy has a number of tips for us in this episode.
Topics discussed in this episode:
- Devise a plan for how and when you use your phone.
- The cycle of addiction.
- Monitoring our phone usage.
- Modelling good behaviour around phone usage to our kids.
- Training ourselves to slow down.
