Simple Steps for a Healthier Phone Detox

Define why you want a detox, such as better sleep, more hobbies, or less screen time, and write it down to stay motivated.

Begin with simple limits, like avoiding social media after waking up or switching off one evening a week, to ease the transition.

Disable distracting app alerts to reduce the urge to constantly check your phone.

Replace scrolling with rewarding activities like reading, journaling, exercising, or walking.

Treat slip-ups as part of the process, celebrate small wins, and focus on balance over perfection.
