Every Friday we team up with the Canadian Mental Health Association Lambton Kent<\/a> to share ways you can take care of yourself, focus on mental health and help you FEEL GOOD!<\/p>\n

Today, as we head into another long weekend, why not try a digital detox?<\/p>\n

GASP.<\/p>\n

I know.\u00a0 Imagine.\u00a0 But trust me when I say – it’s so worth it.\u00a0 I’ve done a few and I always feel better after.\u00a0 To be honest, over the last year I have almost completely removed myself from the online world.<\/p>\n

So let’s do it. Even if it is just for the weekend.\u00a0 Let’s challenge ourselves, promise ourselves – to take that digital break.<\/p>\n

Shutting off from technology for a given period of time can improve sleep and concentration, reduce stress, improve happiness and help with your mental health!\u00a0 It’s true.\u00a0 Studies show that doing a digital detox may help you establish a healthier, less stressful work-life balance, and detoxing might be a good way to focus on what’s important in your own life, without comparing yourself to others.<\/p>\n

I’m in.\u00a0 Are you?<\/p>\n

Let me know if you’re doing the digital detox this weekend.\u00a0 Send me an email to cbuchanan@blackburnradio.com\u00a0<\/a>and don’t forget to join the Fox Feel Good group to keep those good vibes going strong.\u00a0 Everyone is welcome to join.<\/p>\n
