But it doesn't need to be this way. We don’t need to be a slave to our screens. We don’t need to be tethered to our technology! Nor do we need to digitally-amputate ourselves, or go on digital detoxes.
Instead, we need to learn how we can control our technology habits, so we’re a master (not a slave) to the screen.
I can help you find healthy, helpful and sustainable tech habits that won’t compromise your health or productivity. In fact, these habits will optimise your health and wellbeing and bolster your output at work.
That’s why I’ve developed an eCourse called
This eCourse has been carefully designed to support your health and wellbeing in our highly digitised workplace and lifestyle. The masterclass is based on cutting-edge research from neuroscience, psychology and technology, yet it’s highly practical and has simple, realistic solutions to help you turn your toxic tech habits into more sustainable habits. The self-paced eCourse is comprised of six modules that help users develop productive and healthy technology habits.
Provides practical advice and immediately actionable strategies to help you tame your tech habits and boost your productivity and performance at work and home (without suggesting that you ban your phone or go ‘laptopless’).
Can be purchased by individuals, or site licences can be arranged for workplaces wanting to offer the course to multiple staff at a discounted rate.
Can also be included in one of my Corporate Digital Wellbeing Packages that includes Kristy presenting an in-person Lunch and Learn seminar and access to this eCourse.
