Klappentext
Transform Your Relationship With Tech (Without Breaking Things Off Completely)
It's no secret that we often use our tech mindlessly. In fact, digital innovations increasingly make it so that we barely need to think at all. Streaming services tell us what to watch next. Influencers tell us what to buy next. The GPS tells us where to turn next. But the more we allow algorithms, apps and artificial intelligence to guide our behavior, the less control we have over who we intend to be. And because we've made a habit out of relying on the supercomputer in our pocket or the helpful digital voice on the other end of our smart speaker, we've lost access to the skills we need to break the hold tech has over us.
Thankfully, world-leading digital habits experts Jonathan Garner and Menka Sanghvi have discovered a way to improve our relationship with digital technology that doesn't involve throwing your phone in a lake, helping you use the latest tech without losing yourself.
In this groundbreaking book, Garner and Sanghvi share their key principles that uncover the trick to going beyond digital detoxes, the unlikely benefits of inconvenience and the secret of intentional habits. Through a mix of storytelling and cutting-edge insights from the fields of psychology, neuroscience and mindfulness, they introduce their unique M. O.R. E Method, guiding you through a series of practices that will build your mental muscles of observing, reflecting and experimenting. This book will reveal your digital blind spots and build positive digital habits so you can reconnect with what matters most to you.
Reimagine your distracting digital devices as tools for reclaiming your sanity, time and relationships.
