Intro
Last week my good friend Allison posted on Instagram about a Look up Challenge she was doing. Dr. Katie Penry started The Look Up Challenge. It is a 7 day guided challenge and starts every 7 days.
Dr. Penry talks a lot about mom's and their interactions with their young children. So for you parents out there this is directed specifically to you. I do not have children and I still enjoyed listening to this podcast.
I struggle with social media and how I interact with it and the influence it has in my life so I decided to take the challenge.
DAY 6
Media Free Time
Today there is only an email for the challenge, not a video (I guess it would be hard to be totally tech free). She is quite a character and I appreciate how she is herself and embraces it.
I have done other media fasts in the past. Here is a link to a 10 Day Break I did 6 months ago.
I think it is healthy to have screen free time. The challenge is how to do that in a society were so much of what we do is connected to technology and media.
I like this quote
I know it seems counter-intuitive, but the importance of unstructured time for both children and their adults is crucial for a satisfied, productive, and creative life.
When is my media free time?
I have been a lot less active on Steem lately. Wanting to post when I had significant and or interesting content to post.
I will have a lot of great content soon as I will be traveling to Italy, England, Scotland and Kenya over the next two months!
