Being Less Chronically Online

It’s hard not to be chronically online these days. The modern world moves at a blistering pace, and sometimes it seems like if you’re not scrolling social media, you’re missing all the headlines, as well as all the sweet, sweet memes that come and go in the blink of an eye. But science says it’s not healthy and that all that screen time is ruining our attention spans and yadda yadda yadda. What can you do about it? Here’s how to start:

Get an app to help.
No, really. There are loads of apps out there that can help you with this, from apps that disable certain other apps at certain times of day, to apps that lock your phone after you’ve been scrolling too long, to apps that blare alarms at you if you even start scrolling. Browse your phone’s app store, search something like “screen time helper,” and download one or seven tools and see where they get you.

Sink into something that absorbs you.
Your phone is a distraction, that much is clear. How do you beat it? Distract yourself from the distraction. Pick up that hot new TV show everyone is talking about. Watch a movie. Read a book. Hey, even sink your teeth into a new video game. As long as you’re not wasting time on your phone, it’s hard to say you're wasting time at all. Besides, all of these activities can help you rebuild your attention span.

Hang out IRL.
When you’re talking to someone in-person, it’s hard to see why you’d ever want to talk to a stranger online. Hit up a friend and ask them to hang. Or, go somewhere alone and strike up a conversation with someone new . It doesn’t have to be deep or profound or life-changing, it just has to be something that doesn’t involve your phone.

Find physical replacements for your phone’s functions.
The less you use your phone for anything in general, the easier it is to dodge the temptation to scroll. Use a real-life notepad instead of your phone’s notes app. Buy a cheap MP3 player and download your music onto it, or get into record collecting. Carry a digital camera, or even a cute film camera to capture those precious moments. Do a digital detox. Get analog with it!
