RE: Embracing Emptiness: The Importance of Alone Time in a World Full of Distractions

in Indiaunited2 years ago

The thing is we are not used to staying alone, we do need anything with us other it's a laptop or our smartphone.

I can agree on this one - as I monitor the onscreen time that I have per week I spend around 10 to 12 hours using my mobile device. Subtracting the hours of sleep which is around 7 a day I spend 5 hours or more not having my device with me ( probably I am at work or eating or doing some groceries)

It is important as well to have our "me" time without those devices. I try to limit them during weekends as I need to spend more time on important stuff and oh boy! therapeutic indeed. At times I look forward on weekends as I am not using my gadgets and spend time cooking or reading some books that I wasn't able to finish too.
