"With the increased use of digital devices, having your face planted in your device of choice is the norm. The dopamine hits one receives from social media are compelling. To break this habit, first, use your phone's settings to set time limits. Then, carve out device-free breaks - lock your phone away and take a walk. Employers can encourage walks without phones to promote device-free events, reducing employee burnout."
"A bifocal tactic of mindfulness and minimalism is key: Be mindful of your digital time, and ask, 'Is this for my intellect or my mind?' If the answer is 'mind,' it's likely a diversion to steer clear of. Employers can promote this by encouraging mindful digital practices."
"Employers often worry about employees using virtual time productively and overcompensate by filling their time with meetings and emails to maintain contact. This quickly becomes counterproductive, with employees having no time to actually think about, execute ideas. Employers - pull back on meetings and check-ins. Employees - take time to step away and reflect on your work."
