Abstract

In today’s digital world, many people spend a large amount of time using smartphones, computers, and social media. While technology is helpful for communication and work, too much screen time can affect mental health. Because of this, many people are now practising a “digital detox.” A digital detox means taking a break from digital devices such as smartphones, social media, or computers for a certain period of time in order to relax and reduce stress.
From a simple perspective, digital detox allows people to step away from constant notifications, messages, and online information. This break can help individuals focus more on real-life activities such as spending time with family, exercising, reading, or enjoying nature. These activities may help people feel calmer and more balanced.
