This blog post, "Knock Knock," by Kevin Hunt, discusses the negative impact of constant notifications and interruptions on mental and physical wellbeing, likening it to the smoking of our time. These blog posts discuss the importance of managing stress and maintaining work-life balance for overall health and wellbeing. The author uses analogies, such as a demanding toddler representing overwhelming emails to illustrate how prioritising self-care can prevent burnout and chronic pain. He emphasises the concept of the "Health Hexagon," encompassing factors like sleep, diet, and exercise, as crucial for long-term health. Hunt argues that these micro-stressors contribute to chronic pain and hinder relaxation, advocating for mindful disconnection from technology to improve overall health. The post promotes his book, "Pain: The Ultimate Mentor," suggesting it offers solutions for managing pain and enhancing wellbeing.
