Example

David did a one-week digital cleanse after realizing his screen time was pushing ten hours a day. He turned off non-essential notifications, put his phone in a drawer after 8pm, and journaled his experience. At first, he was twitchy. But by day three, he noticed he was sleeping better and feeling less “mentally cluttered.” After the week, he brought some screen time back but kept boundaries — like no social media before breakfast. The experiment helped him feel more in control of his time.
