Join me for a day of no devices each Sunday. Re-learn how to spend an entire day without instant and infinite access to people, entertainment, distraction, information. Recommended activities include staring, sleeping, walking, feeling whatever you’re feeling, reading, cooking, exercising, getting into nature, being creative, crying, masturbating, and interacting with people face to face. Remember when we used to just go knock on our friend’s door to see what they were up to? Waste time? Rest?

This is not about self punishment or deprivation, nor is it about rejecting the boons of technology, but about giving yourself the gift of dedicated, regular space to live the way we all used to less than a decade ago, perhaps increasing your perspective about your relationship to your phone or the internet.

Exceptions and interruptions in the practice are bound to happen, but will happen intentionally and mindfully—often the opposite of how we all use our phones and tablets. I recommend notifying those who may be used to daily or frequent communication so they don’t worry.

Please feel free to get in touch with me via Instagram or email to share your experiences with this practice, and if you post about it, use #devicefreesunday so we can all connect.

*Note: During this particular time in history, a practice like this could be challenging or perhaps too much. I recommend noticing and honoring these realities, trying not to judge yourself if this isn’t a good time for you to partake in this non-event.
