SATURDAY WORKSHOP: Digital Detox
In today's fast-paced, technology-driven world, finding balance can be a challenge. Our half-day workshop, "Digital Detox," offers a sanctuary from the constant barrage of notifications and screens. This transformative experience is designed to help you develop a healthier relationship with your digital devices, ensuring you reclaim time for what truly matters. Through focused meditations and practical, insightful guidance, you'll discover how to integrate mindfulness into your daily routine, leading to a more fulfilling and balanced life.
The course delves into the philosophy and psychology behind our attachment to digital devices. You'll explore the underlying reasons for our constant connectivity and learn strategies to manage this relationship more mindfully. Gen Samten will share valuable insights and techniques that will empower you to set boundaries, reduce screen time, and enhance your overall well-being. By understanding the impact of digital overload on your mental and emotional health, you'll be better equipped to make conscious choices that prioritize your quality of life.
In addition to theoretical knowledge, "Digital Detox" provides hands-on, practical life hacks to help you implement these changes immediately. From simple adjustments in your daily habits to more profound shifts in your mindset, you'll leave the workshop with a toolkit of strategies to maintain a balanced digital life.
Join us for a day of reflection, connection, and rejuvenation, and take the first step towards a healthier, more intentional relationship with technology. Your journey to a more mindful and enriched life begins here.
