For Lent, I have limited myself to 10 minutes of social media each day. For the first few days, I reached for my phone constantly. It was scary how many times I went to reach for it. Weeks in and I have regained my love of puzzles/games (NYT Games, Solitaire, Block Buster) instead of social media. My usage time has gone down considerably, and I have read four books this month. I am afraid of falling back into the habit when Easter comes. Any suggestions for transitioning back into social media? Or how to continue the minimal usage?
I scheduled downtime on my i phone every day, it’s so helpful to get things done. I also have been trying hard to really put the phone down when I’m with family and friends, i want to do better at not multitasking between my phone and other things
How do you handle being available to your kids? I want to do this badly but with a 10 and 15 year old with busy schedules I find I can’t take chunks of time with the phone off.
