Hi!
\nFirst of all, do not force yourself. I guess trying to convince yourself and your brain would be better and more efficient.
\nTell yourself you\u2019re doing this because of your health; both physical and mental. <\/p>\n

Secondly, have times for yourself in which you don\u2019t use any electronic devices: walking, reading, drawing, writing, cooking, even just staring at the sky wondering.
\nThis way, you disconnect from the electronic world and you reconnect with your interior world, getting to know yourself better.<\/p>\n

As an example, try to stop using electronic devices an hour before going to bed, and use that time to do other things.<\/p>\n

I hope this helps!<\/p>\n

Sincerely, Natalia \ud83d\ude42<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>
