Let’s talk unplugged living!

For one of my classes I am participating in the “Bored and Brilliant” project. This is a challenge to de-screen your life and touch back into reality. While in college I have noticed that I spend way to much time on my phone. Whether I am relaxing, listening to music, learning, watching a movie, working, and even occasionally to fall asleep I am constantly on a screen.

We as people become a product of our consumption, not necessarily what we buy with money, but more so what we buy with our time. I have learned through this project that I am addicted and have become reliant on the quick dopamine fixes as well as the comfort that lies within the mass amounts of screen time I indulge in.

If you are at all thinking about cutting back on the screen DO IT!! Cut out all the apps and distractions that take you away from the real joys in life. For me that’s music, travel, reading, being outside, and journaling! But find what makes you YOU and make yourself happy in the long run, not just what makes you feel good right now!
