Benefits of digital detox
Several types of research have been conducted to explore the effects of digital detox. It has proven that digital detox has a significant impact to increase our focus and developing our mental status. It can make us more productive by reducing stress and increasing our concentration power. We can feel more secure and calmer. It has a profound effect on our sex lives by spending more private time together. In the modern world, digital devices are creating distances in our relationships. A digital detox can help us to overcome that situation.
An Associate Professor in Communication and Media Studies at Fordham University Dr. Sharif Mowlabocus explained, “Even if you know it’s becoming a negative thing, the attachment to their phone unwillingly takes priority.” Dr. Sharif also said, “Their phones are still the first thing they touch when they wake up and the last thing they touch before they go to sleep. That should really be their partner.”
