Om denne e-boken

Short Digital Detox tackles the modern paradox of technology: while it boosts productivity, its overuse drains focus and emotional resilience. Blending neuroscience, psychology, and practical self-help, the book reveals how brief tech-free breaks—like 10-minute mindfulness sessions or 30-minute screen-free walks—can reset cognitive function and reduce stress. Its core premise challenges the myth that productivity requires constant connectivity, offering instead a sustainable middle ground through micro-detoxes tailored to busy lives.

The book stands out by grounding its advice in striking research: attention spans have shrunk 25% since 2000, correlating with smartphone use, while 15-minute daily nature breaks slash stress hormones by 22%. It explains complex concepts like dopamine-driven feedback loops and cognitive load in plain terms, using relatable examples—a programmer improving code quality with 20-minute screen Sabbaths or a teacher regaining focus via phone-free lunches. Structured in three parts, it first details how digital overload frays mental clarity, then supports claims with fMRI studies (showing multitasking dampens prefrontal cortex activity) and workplace trials linking scheduled detoxes to 18% higher task completion.

Unlike extreme detox approaches, the book prioritizes practicality. Its final section offers customizable strategies like notification fasting and analog mornings, emphasizing incremental habit changes. By reframing tech use as a rhythm of engagement and recovery, Short Digital Detox redefines productivity as mental clarity, not just output—a science-backed toolkit for anyone seeking to thrive in a hyperconnected world.
