There is no shortage of healthy technology habits coming from the digital wellness community, but it’s no secret that habits are difficult to break and keep, especially ones that require daily preparation and attention. That’s where a weekly “Tech Shabbat” can really be a game changer. Tiffany Shlain, a filmmaker and founder of the Webby Awards, joins the podcast to discuss the benefits her and her family received from this weekly ritual of completely unplugging from tech for 24 hours, and how it can often be a more practical and effective way to curb some of the negative effects of technology overuse, combat technology fatigue, and free your family to do the things they truly love to do.
