Undoubtedly, our mind and body constantly process food, drink, thoughts, and emotions.
When you are in doubt about taking a step back, you should take action back, and it will help you recharge and relax in the long term.
Devote some time regularly for yourself. Here are the top 3 detox tips to start.
#3 Spend time in nature
Nature has extraordinarily positive effects on our physical and mental health. Many studies show that people who spend more time in nature tend to live a happy life.
I always go for a long walk, especially if I get stuck in a complicated task at work, even in my personal life. After 20–30 minutes, my brain always helps me bring some fresh ideas to the table to tackle the situation.
#2 Declutter your inbox- get rid of unnecessary promotional emails
It’s pretty common to plug in our emails on multiple sites to get some real promotional items, discount codes, or to keep an eye on our favorite product to go on sale.
I would suggest creating a reminder instead of choosing to get an email. Maybe check biweekly or every month. We often know promotional seasons: black Friday, Xmass, holidays, etc. By doing this, we inevitably get other products and sometimes buy the things we don’t need.
#1 Pay close attention to your screen time
According to studies, an average human touches his/her phone 2617 times in 24 hours.
Maybe download an extension to see how much time you spend on unnecessary sites; I use iPhone, and it’s pretty much built to find out the screen time each day or weekly.
There are plenty of apps to help you to keep an eye on your screen time. I am sure you will be surprised to know how much time you are wasting daily.
