The world has become much smaller since the advent of the internet and super technology. When there was only simple endeavours we were not being influenced or distracted by internet’s agony, our home was refuge from the outer confusion that now seems to dominate our lives. Problems that seemed oceans away are now knocking at our home’s door wanting to involve us in the unnecessary anarchy that poisons our peace and joy.

Trade the blue glow for the burn of muscles in motion. Exchange doomscrolling for sun salutations. Swap the endless feed for the finite beauty of a canvas, a guitar, a garden.

We definitely need to bring this back. Life was so simple and peaceful when we didn’t have the internet and only had landline phones. Yes, we can’t go back to those times, but we can deliberately make changes in at least our own lives. Thank you so much, Gurdeep, for writing this article. It was a good reminder. 🙏🏽

I don’t do notifications and my phone is constantly on silent. Discernment is the most important aspect of self preservation and Intentional disconnection is self care. Not care less. Well said.
