Most of us have gotten so used to notifications and alerts, pings and rings, that even if we don't want to be on our phones so much, we don't know what to do about it. The constant flow of information affects our brains, relationships, and emotional well-being. Like many of us, podcaster and author Carlos Whittaker had lived for years in an always-on, always-connected world—and he felt more disconnected than ever from God, his community, and even himself. When he realized how many hours he spent on his phone, he took extreme measures to see how unplugging could change his body and soul. In Reconnected, Carlos shares the challenges, surprises, and profound insights of his self-imposed exile from technology, spending nearly two months screen-free at a monastery, an Amish farm, and at home. As you journey with Carlos through this life-changing experiment you will discover: • how to retrain yourself to notice the world before you notice your texts • what technology does to your brain and what you can do about it • ways to prioritize in-person relationships even if you need screens for work or school • why turning down your phone's volume turns up God's voice in your life • the newfound joy of being bored, getting lost, and not having to Google every question that comes to your mind. It's time to take back control of your life from technology and recover the lost art of being human.More Info
