A few minutes without a phone can help develop awareness.
The habit of reading something in the toilet has been around for a long time. Perhaps with the emergence of toilets. Only before we took a book or a crossword puzzle with us, but now - a phone. You can read the article, go to social networks, play. But such a habit becomes far from so harmless if we consider that the phone is with us all the time.
The brain needs to rest. Even a few minutes without new information will help you relax, and also notice what is happening in your mind.
Mindfulness can be developed not only through meditation. Give yourself time to just dream.
Set aside at least one free evening a week for this. Sit with a cup of tea, look out the window and let your mind do whatever it wants to do. During the day, we constantly need to concentrate, and this respite will benefit the brain.
This is an opportunity to understand how you feel when your attention is not distracted by work, communication or entertainment. At such moments, you are left alone with yourself. Maybe you will notice that something is bothering you, or you will find a solution to an old problem.
Many people try to look less at the phone, but in itself it is quite difficult. This goal is too vague. Step by step: Stop taking your phone to the bathroom to get started. Don't be afraid to be alone with your thoughts.
