Have you ever felt tired just from scrolling through social media too often, or from being chased by endless notifications? In the online era, we often forget that the body and mind also need a break from screens. Well, this is why. digital detox has begun to become a new lifestyle that many people around the world have tried, including in Indonesia.
Digital detox doesn't mean you have to live completely without the internet. It's more about taking a break so our relationship with gadgets is healthier. For example, try a small rule: one hour before sleep without a cell phone, or one day a week without social mediaIt may feel strange at first, but the effects can help you sleep more soundly, and your head feels fresher, and your mood becomes more stable.
Many people also choose to take a vacation while on a digital detox. Not only abroad, but also visiting a tourist village, camping in the mountains, or simply picnicking in a city park without the hassle of updating your stories. Simple activities such as chatting with friends, playing board games, or reading a physical book can feel far more 'real' than just scrolling through your timeline.
So, let's start with small steps. Turn off the notifications that aren’t important, set aside time for yourself, and feel how life is calmer without having to be constantly connected. Remember, technology is a tool to help, not a master that controls our lives. Come on, try a digital detox this week; who knows, you might rediscover the peace of mind that has been missing all this time.
Sometimes what we need isn't fast WiFi, but a calm heart. Let's try. #DigitalDetox
