Essentially a break from it all, no screens, tvs, games, etc. Just a day, week or however long you can handle it away from tech. When I was a kid I didn't have much tech stuff, so it was me finding what I could to play with. But these days I feel locked behind a screen sometimes and just need a break. I wouldn't count stuff like using my credit card, driving, or eatting as a part of it. More so just a break from technology in general.


Most of my work is online as well, so I get how weird it is. But I think it's a good idea to take breaks once in a while. For example, I had a power outage months ago, and didn't know what to do with myself. No tech worked, so I could have taken this opportunity to relax in other ways, like reading a book like you say, or even doing art or something.



Oh it'd be hard for me as well. I'm so used to using my PC and phone that an extended time without them, would bug me a lot. But I think as it goes on, we'd gradually get used to it.



My last vacation I was on my phone a lot. Habits are tough to break sometimes. But that's kinda why I want to start taking days or maybe weeks off of tech sometimes. Just to get it out of my system for a while.



Could see that happening one day. We'd all eventually get used to not having tech.
