Alicia Maheux: Disconnect to Connect

By: Alicia Maheux


Disconnect to Connect. Here are some of the ways I disconnect from technology to connect more to myself and to others...



ReadšŸ“š


Instead of playing a video game or watching TV, why not pick up a book and imagine your own movie or show from that book. Iā€™m currently reading the Reluctant Detective By Finley Martin.









Draw Or Make A Card For SomeonešŸ“ƒšŸ–


Cards might look prettier bought, but they mean more when you make them yourself. If you don't have someone to give a card to, try sketching your thoughts into drawings.






Meditate šŸ§˜ā€ā™€ļø


Take a second to yourself and relax. Let your mind, body, and heart be in the moment. Clear your head and just breathe, in and out. Preferably in a quiet area.








WritingāœšŸ“


Try taking notice of your feelings, recognizing how things make you feel, or just noticing the differences in your moods. Or try writing down something that interests you, or write a fun little short story.







Go For A Walk OutsidešŸš¶ā€ā™€ļøšŸŒ³


If the weather isn't so bad (or even if it is) go outside and walk around the block, or through the woods for a little bit.







These are just some of the ways I like to Disconnect to Connect, let me know what things you like doing that don't involve technology. šŸ‘©ā€šŸ’»šŸ¤³šŸ‘Øā€šŸ’» šŸ¤³
