Day 5 of Self Love
Take a technology break.
Unplug it. Turn it completely off. Tuck it away. Do whatever you need to do to step away and give yourself a technology break. We are constantly inundated with information - news, pictures of friends, texts, random people dancing like fools, music, emails, and the list goes on. Our attention spans seem to be getting shorter and shorter. Plus - so much of what is out there is negative - and that just fills our brains and hearts, making it harder to push through and rise above.
I find that people text rather than have actual conversations, which doesn’t help us connect with one another. We miss all the non-verbal cures of communication.
BREAK FREE!!
You get to choose the length of time, but I would suggest a few hours at a time. For example, if you want to make sure you are present and engaged with your family, take a break from 5-8 pm every night. If you want to take it to the next level, break away for a day or more! Take note of how it affects your attitude and demeanor. You might be surprised at how freeing it actually feels!
