Reclaiming the Quiet Brain: Navigating the Impact of New Technologies on Mental Clarity.

Impact of New Technologies:

New technologies can disrupt our lives in unexpected ways. For instance, personal and mobile computing increased busyness but didn't necessarily boost productivity, highlighting the difference between focused, productive deep work and less impactful shallow work.

The Quiet Brain State:

The "quiet brain" state, where one is alone with their thoughts, is crucial for mental clarity and self-understanding. Historically, humans spent a lot of time in this state, fostering calmness and deeper understanding.

Loss of the Quiet Brain:

Constant phone use disrupts this quiet brain state, preventing moments of introspection and leading to unease.

Ways to Reclaim the Quiet Brain:

1. Make Your Phone Boring: Remove engaging apps to turn your phone into a simple tool.

2. Phone Foyer Method: Keep your phone in one spot at home to break the habit of constant checking.

3. Avoid Reading on Your Phone: Use other devices like a Kindle for reading.

4. Practice Boredom: Spend time without digital distractions to allow for deep thought.

Benefits of the Quiet Brain:

Reclaiming this state enhances mental clarity, personal understanding, and intellectual engagement, leading to a richer life experience.

These changes can improve your mental well-being and sense of self over time, transforming your life from constant distraction to deeper awareness and fulfillment.

Digital Detox Helping With Chronic Illness

I did what I like to call a "digital detox" by limiting 90% of the apps I could use on my phone, especially social media. I do this because I find so much negativity in the community. Trust me when I say I know being chronically is hard. But there is no reason any of us need a 24/7 reminder of it.

I also find it difficult when I'm stuck at home for a good majority of my days, with no work, it's hard to keep myseld entertained all day. I end up relying on my phone and I get incredibly sad in the process.

As some of you may know if you watch my YouTube, I was off social media for 7 months. I found it beneficial. While I'm ready to be back on social media, I needed a break

So I only used my phone to film my journey, listened, to music, and text two people. My time spent on my phone was half of what it usually was (really just using the camera app.)

Would you be interested in me uploading to my YouTube channel my journey of a digital detox while living with a chronic illness? Should I do this more often? Would you consider doing this?

I like to refer to this short collection as Stir Crazy, because that's where my brain was. I was attempting to go without social media to allow my brain to relax and reset and was trying to improve old doodles of mine. So, hope you like Stir Crazy, and uninstall Facebook and others.
