Extend the Conversation: Disconnecting From Your Smart Phone

Our Spring 2021 issue of Forum, which explores the theme of solitude, includes an essay by social commentator Maggie Jackson about the mental decluttering that can unfold when we put away our smart phones for a while. If you missed Jackson's essay, you can read it here.

What strategies have you used to periodically disconnect from your smart phone and social media? Do you find it difficult to do so? What benefits, if any, have you noticed when you unplug?

We'd love to hear from you. Extend the conversation in our online member community Link.
