The very first thing you have to do is to plough the soil to plant the seed. Nothing, but to prepare yourselves for the task. You must first delete the mere thought of a phone or a lap from your senses while being in a detox. Seems intractable? never because a little pain, always gains a fruit. We can never make the horse drink the water, rather pave its way. So it’s your duty to be prepared by mind and soul for a transformation.

The task is daunting and challenging, that doesn’t mean that you have to catch the cloud first. You must be aware about your limits. Set up a challenge that you think you could complete. If not, despair can make you lazy.
For instance, this day you’ll refrain yourself from using your mobile phone during your leisure time instead you’ll open your senses out to the world and stick to it.
As said stay by your limits, because no one knows you better than you. Your overestimation of “yaa... it’s easy as a click for me man”, turns the scene to “no….I can never be on this detoxing!”. Because clicking is easy as a prick but hmm…. refraining is hefty!
Just like a toddler, first step…. fall…raise, and now the other… that’s how you can be divulged from your well constrained digital space. May be follow these steps.

It’s time to change your partner. Because you know this relationship is not working and you need a break. Yes. Your partner the digital gadgets, is swamping you day by day. Have a date with your yoga mat, you’ll love it. Yoga helps you to free your mind from other distractions. It calms you and releases your stress out.

Your repressed emotions are best released in physical activities like sports, says Freud. Switching to sports keeps you healthy and fit internally and externally. This would help you to use your leisure time in something productive rather than being invisible in a digital space. This has proved to be one of the effective ways of doing a digital detox.

Calming your mind is an art, and the one who masters it wins life. There are many workshops and centers which helps you in your voyage. Digital detox retreats and centers are pinning up every day around us. They help you to enjoy the bright sun, chirping birds, cool breeze and soothing water which is far better than the travel clicks and filters of your Instagram or chats. It’s an experience of deepening your sense of self without the distraction of any technology.

Sure your grand ma’s are going to sue me up if I advise you to do such things! But the truth is we the youngsters indulge in phones and other gadgets especially while we are on the dining table. “Food! Oh then clicks, filters, tags and post!......” Try and enjoy your sense of tasting because you have lost it in the filtered world. Indulging in small talks with one another while having food (keeping on mind, your breathe and senses), helps you to divert yourself from the mere thought of all social medias. Because a warm and interesting conversation opens your mind.
Not joking… it’s a fact that helped me in restraining the use of mobile phones inside the bathroom. Might sound, like a dump, but it’s a way you engage yourself and ignore that there is a digital world waiting for you. Once you start engaging in the process of counting the tiles or blocks, it becomes an interesting task. You’ll divert and then you’ll have the tendency to recount every time you are in. This helps you from refraining the use of gadgets at least when you are on a digital detox.
