Family doesn't feel neglected and we feel refreshed after spending time with them. It's very essential to have a detox from all bad things - junk food, internet and life in general. :) Thanks for visiting, Shilpa.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02895783089744279247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8250609890657663853.post-18841066669940349532016-08-03T12:51:15.086-04:002016-08-03T12:51:15.086-04:00Drawing is really soothing too to our frantic nerv...Drawing is really soothing too to our frantic nerves.

There's time to read, walk, talk to people, observe the life around us, play with kids and much more. Though the technology has made our life easier in many ways, its over use proves to be detrimental to our health, well-being and relationships too!Shilpa Garghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11016927627801620377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8250609890657663853.post-76081831013427135602016-08-03T09:31:26.177-04:002016-08-03T09:31:26.177-04:00I love those offline moments... going on walk is a...I love those offline moments... going on walk is a beautiful way to connect with nature.

I wish all the tech inventions would just vanish somehow :D esp smart phones ;) I detox by un-installing watsapp periodically and try to not get onto the laptop some days. I switch off my mobile before I sleep and even leave it at home when I go out sometimes. It is all part of the shackles that bind and I get restless and want to shake them all off and stand free :) <br />Mornings I sit with my cup of tea and taste and savour its warmth fully while looking at trees from my front window, walk, cook, teach yoga, sketch etc for the joy of being present.Sunilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15691961314381713993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8250609890657663853.post-63291916071920288882016-08-03T08:55:39.477-04:002016-08-03T08:55:39.477-04:00Truly!

Technology was invented to bring people closer, when what it is doing is taking them apart.I go on a Digital Detox frequently, where i switch off from all forms of communication, after letting all the people who matter know about it, and just be myself. I read, meditate and generally recharge myself.Deliciously Alivehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17431992268355546378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8250609890657663853.post-18445602290449410772016-08-03T06:49:42.554-04:002016-08-03T06:49:42.554-04:00I listen to music and meditate.

Trying to limit FB interaction to weekends only but making an exception for this Blogathon.
