[@mariekevandekerk3909]

Thank you! I really need(ed) this. My usage of my phone is especially bad right before bed. I can't stop watching KZbin before bed🙈.

[@RickMartinYouTube]

yes, me too......probably explains my insomnia.

[@mr.charming6815]

Cause youre getting dopamine,(I think that's how you spell it) leading you to use your phone more because sleeping gives you less dopamine I think...

[@dontpeeonthefloor8639]

Omg this is sooo what I needed because of quarantine😫

[@ashleymaria29]

There was a time where I was always on my phone because I was going through a very hard time and was alone so my phone became something to do. So I didn't feel so alone. I would be listing to podcasts or audio books or music.

I'm trying to be more present in daily life, when we go on vacation i'm never on my phone and it's such a relaxing & engaging time. But for some reason at home I'll justify doing it while i'm doing the dishes but it starts creeping into my other time. Thanks for the reminder and some intentional tips👍

[@sable747]

Loved the example of using pen and paper and then transfer one time a day. So simple. Thank you!

[@jonathanwall8074]

I appreciate this video. I have set weekends to unplug and the difference in life is amazing. I unplugged on a vacation once and honestly the vacation that could have been dull turned out much more interesting. Thank you for the tips on how to create a more mindful daily usage for my phone. I can't wait to try!

[@avo.avocado]

Thank you I stayed up to 6am last night and I really wanna stop...

[@Joy.Elizabeth]

7:45 this is me too!! I'll go to write something on the grocery list (on my phone) n then oops I'm sucked into checking games n emails ect. This was a great video! 👍🏻👍🏻 I love that you reinforce that our phones aren't the devil and that simply reducing time on the phone doesn't really work well for adults. These were all really helpful tips I'll be trying! 💜

[@carolinamama9496]

I absolutely agree with no phones at the table. We also don’t watch tv while eating unless it’s a “movie night” during the hours of 2-6 I put my phone up. My daughter gets home from school around 2 and by 6 we’ve eaten dinner. Now I am definitely guilty of strolling through a ton at night and keeping myself up sometimes from it.

[@yvetteburesch9018]

While I do need to use my phone less, for the record I clicked on this video just because you posted it ❤️

[@smilelovedancealot]

I love the idea of creating a shot list ahead of time - that’s not one I’ve heard before! I’m a chronic too-many-picture-taker and feel overwhelmed by the amount I have. I Tru to go back and delete photos, but it would be much more effective to simply take fewer photos in the first place. This will be especially important with Google Photos moving to paid storage in June. I’m going to try this one out!!

[@theninth5691]

Really excellent video. I came because I'm ADDICTED to the news app and it's running my life. I'm so anxious it's making me sick at this point with the coronavirus going around. Ty.

I'm working on it. I don't use most social media except KZbin and Vimeo. What is helping me is game night reading journaling quiet morning time starting to try to stop using phone tablet in the evening. Shut it off by 6 or 7. Cleaning exercise cooking meal planning I'm doing that and game night with my hubby baby

So I'm going through some depression right now and I know that my phone and how muchinh i have been using it has to do with it to some degree. I need to hey back into exercising more and not staying up on my electronics. Thank you for these wonderful tips, I will definitely be happy to use them. It might take some time, but I'll get there.

[@kristinkaufman5017]

I've really been wanting to cut down on screen time. Especially around my little. I also feel like it's setting a bad example for them too! Can't wait to try out these tricks!

That's awesome!

[@chiffoneverettjordan162]

Thanks for the additional tips to reduce my phone usage! I had already implemented a few of these prior to watching this video, but want to further reduce my usage.

[@jamies311]

Loving your channel! Thank you for this video, especially the tips re: taking photos :)

[@xchurricane]

I needed this! Watched it on my computer since my phone is old and dying haha. I love the idea of setting specific times and places for no phones!

[@RickMartinYouTube]

I do fitness classes everyday and in a room full of people, before class, almost each and every usually has their face in a mobile device and ignoring the person next to them. Kind of sad, imo.

[@jfr7160]

Rick Martin me too Rick! Or now I see them checking their Apple watches durning class!! 🤦🏼‍♀️

[@lilida817]

I did this too. I recently started leaving my phone in the car. Now I just stand there awkwardly while everyone else is on their phone

[@jfr7160]

I wear a FitBit for time and I can get massages on it as well! I do get notifications weekly of my phone usage and I’m always proud of myself when it’s “down” from the previous week! 🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@graceannecasto3792]

Thanks for these tips! I feel like part of the reason I feel the need to carry my phone around the house with me is because I leave it on silent - so it it’s not right next to me I’ll miss calls and texts. So why don’t I just turn the ringer on?? So simple but like you said once you have a habit in place you need to be really mindful to change it. I also have an alarm clock for the very reason you said here but have procrastinated setting it up. Maybe now I will!

[@birbo9489]

I absolutely love your videos! You have some good tips and you come off as a real down to earth kind of girl.

[@clairematthews5069]

A year after I became a mum I bought a smart watch, it feels so nice to not have my phone near me all the time and if I get a text or call I can answer or dictate a quick reply without having to go and find my phone. So I have the connectivity if needed without the time suck apps. It definitely helps me be more present with my little one 👍🏼

[@erinrapacki]

Amazing! You are so good at life, it is truly inspiring! I adore watching your videos, great content and delivery 😄 👏🏻

[@matildemendespinto8642]

Something that really helped me s to leave my phone in a different room that I am at. For example, while I am studying in the living room I leave my phone in my bedroom, so I have to get up to get it. Also, if you use your computer for work, try to do some of the things you do on your phone there, like WhatsApp, it one less reason for you to pick up your phpne

[@jessicacurtis4037]

and here i am at 2:30am watching this video when i have to get up for work in 6 hours... ugh now i feel guilty. I need to go to bed. NIGHT! Definitely going to be using these tips.

[@nurhasyimahasim3580]

I super love all your tips. Thank you. ❤❤ I actually have done most of it but not 100% successful yet. I agree with taking picture using a real camera, yeah I keep billions of photos in my phone. Urghh, it's super exhausting and time consuming to choose and delete the important ones. I hope I can cure myself from this addiction asap.

[@jodeeclarklompa852]

I also like using alexa to keep my lists instead of my phone. I use a paper calendar and then transfer info into my phone. I will be trying the alarm clock and sacred times to avoid or limit phone usage. Thanks so much for your very helpful videos.

We have the rule no phones at dinner. I also started the using a real camera too. Great ideas!

[@juliak.2007]

I would add books and magazines to the list of analogue counterparts of the phone. Since we often use phones out of boredom, it’s a good idea to always have a captivating book or magazine at home. There are so many great titles out there that are way more interesting than funny videos on KZbin or another meme that I’m sure you will all prefer reading a book rather than scrolling down Facebook before going to sleep or while eating your lunch.

[@tadiwa996]

trying to look better when i go back to school in quarantine :)

[@RobinDeeter]

In short, return to old school ways of doing things like we did when I was growing up. We had clocks (and still do) in each room in the house, including analog clocks (oh, the horror! Can't believe how many people don't know how to read an analog clock), wrote important appointments and such on the wall calendar or carried a pocket calendar in our purses. Still do. The only thing outside of our mom we had to wake us up for school was an alarm clock. There was no snooze button, and if you really had a tough time waking up, you could place it on a tin pie plate. You bolted up in bed when it went off and you were wide awake! When we wanted a recipe, we opened a cookbook. When we wanted to take a picture, we used our Polaroid instant camera, which was super hightech at that time, or windup film cameras that came along later. Everything you described in this video is exactly the way we used to do things, which was better in so many ways. We talked to each other at mealtime instead of staring at a screen and we used more of our cognitive mind skills by writing by hand instead of typing all the time. People are finding that those older methods of doing things were much better for us in the long run, says the writing who is typing all of this on her computer. LOL Thanks for the tips and the great video.

[@LuMichelini]

I don't think being on our phones is a problem at all, I think it's WHAT we do in it that's the problem. Scrolling Instagram and Facebook? Playing games? Being on forums? Waste of time. Do I do it? Yes, but I try to limit it. But if you're going to read, learn something, watch content that matters... There's nothing wrong with that.
