Digital Detox: Reclaiming Your Attention
Understanding the Impact of Digital Overload
Digital overload refers to the stress and anxiety experienced from excessive use of digital devices. Symptoms can include difficulty concentrating, poor sleep quality, and a feeling of constant distraction. This state not only affects our mental health but can also hinder our productivity by fragmenting our attention and reducing our capacity for deep work. Furthermore, personal relationships can suffer as digital interactions replace face-to-face communication, leading to a sense of disconnection from those around us.
