We will learn:

  • How smartphones are designed to work against our happiness. 
  • How to stay connected while disconnected. 
  • The brain benefits of boredom. 

Have you noticed your phone time taking away from other important moments in your life?

 

I’ve always been a tech person so I have a tendency to overuse my smartphone. 

 

Recently I made some customizations to my smartphone and my phone use immediately dropped 80% which is awesome. 

 

I shared my customizations on social -mindfully using my computer- and I got a bunch of DMs about it so I know a lot of you are suffering from a little tech addiction yourselves.

 

So today we’re going to learn how to live our lives a little less plugged in. Because maybe disconnecting from the online world is what we actually need to connect with the offline world.

 

Our guest is Joe Hollier, multi-disciplinary artist, entrepreneur and co-founder of the Light Phone, a phone designed to be used as little as possible.
