I've been reducing my usage of social media over the last few weeks. I would mindlessly scroll because I was bored, tired, procrastinating or just because my phone was in my hand. It has felt wonderful to be in control of social media and not it controlling me.
I started by asking questions like.... how often have I checked already today? or why am I checking now?.... But it has turned into me checking once or twice a day. It has also resulted in me posting less photos, I love to share our fun time (like most of us do) but it was actually taking me away from these moments of fun. It also felt like I was draining my energy to do all this posting, checking and commenting, so now its a weekly post. I feel so refreshed by it and I hope you enjoy it too.
However this week my switching off from technology was taken to a whole new level and made me realise how much I relied on it. I had no mobile phone reception for 1.5 days, it felt like so much longer. There was no point to go near my phone, other than a few happy snaps you can see below, it was really freeing and a little strange.
To sum it all up I'm enjoying the control I have on my technology now and I hope it can make you look at your usage and take control in a way that suits you.

I had lots of time to sit, crochet and listen to nature and my kids play.
Playing Great Grandma's Favourite Game and now Mr X's Favourite too.
Grandma comes up with great ideas, so kids helped create these fun PJs on the weekend.
