How A One-Week Digital Detox Restores Work-Life Balance
Briefly

Busy professionals frequently feel pressures to remain constantly connected, resulting in fatigue from excessive screen time. Many employees report feeling overwhelmed with distractions due to the need to respond immediately. A digital detox, even if not a full unplugging, can help in reducing stress and improving focus. Steps to implement include establishing device-free zones, particularly in the bedroom, to enhance sleep quality and mental restoration, as well as disabling unnecessary notifications to minimize cognitive disruption during work.

Turning off non-essential notifications can significantly reduce cognitive fragmentation. This allows for deeper focus on meaningful work during a digital detox.
