Taking back control of tech
87% of employees complain that technology prevents them from ‘switching off’ outside of work hours.
And more than one in three young people, aged 18-24, believe that addiction to technology and social networks have a negative impact on their wellbeing.
Whilst there are countless benefits to the much-needed connection and interactivity our screens can bring us, psychologists still deem society’s smartphone overuse and dependancy as a ‘full blown epidemic’. Believed to be a contributing factor towards increasing levels of anxiety, depression and loneliness, our attachment to our screens is also disrupting our productivity, sleep and relationships. By tackling the following topics, this 60 minute webinar will help you take control of technology, ensuring it enhances, rather than hinders your ‘real life’ off screen:
- Discover the neuroscience and physiological effects of the impact of screen time, particularly how it activates the body’s stress response and impairs working memory.
- Consider ways in which use of certain apps and social media can compromise our mental health.
- Take home tools and tips to help cultivate more conscious and mindful smartphone use, particularly during lockdown and restrictions.
If you panic when you’re without your mobile and get FOMO (fear of missing out) from too much social media scrolling, this session is for you.
