These days we’re spending more and more time looking at screens; most of us are immersed more than ever in the digital world, making it difficult to recognize and address tech overload. In this week’s episode of Be HEALTHistic, Drs. Stephen and Drew Sinatra welcome public health educator and author of Less Screen, More Green, Dr. Kerry Crofton, to talk about the science around screen time, how it impacts us and our kids, and how her Mindful Tech Plan can help us find more balance. First, Kerry explains why it’s important to minimize our kids’ dependency on screens, and how getting outdoors into nature is a powerful tool. She shares tips on how to unplug by “pausing,” and how to be more available to our kids despite all our digital distractions. Next, Kerry and the doctors talk about rethinking how we use electronics to find freedom from tech overload, and also how to use social media, WiFi, wireless and smart devices more safely. She shares some of her favorite “safe” tech solutions — which cut down on exposure to wireless radiation and electromagnetic fields (EMFs) — and she reveals her top “pearl” of wisdom on how to reduce tech time.
