Making my phone a happy place again

My goal for 2025 was to enjoy everything I do on my phone - like I did in high school when I got my first iMac.

These devices are used for communicating but there a different avenues of communication for different things.

If you’re texting me about work - you can email me.

It’s that simple — I’m focusing on what energy I give to the screen time I have.

Let me know what you do to have a positive experience on your personal devices 🩷

... Read moreIn today's digital age, creating a positive atmosphere on our devices has become essential for mental well-being. With so much time spent on screens, it's crucial to establish boundaries that foster positivity and productivity. Start by decluttering your apps: remove those that drain your energy or contribute to stress. Consider curating your social media feeds to only include content that inspires you or makes you laugh. Setting specific times for checking emails or messages can also enhance your overall experience. By compartmentalizing your phone use, you avoid constant distractions, allowing you to focus on activities that truly matter. Also, don't hesitate to utilize settings that enable 'Do Not Disturb' modes during downtime to recharge mentally. Engaging in more fulfilling activities, like reading or learning something new through apps, can enrich your screen time. Lastly, regular reflections on your relationship with technology can lead to a more thoughtful approach, turning your personal device into a source of joy and creativity rather than frustration.
