I only vaguely remember that time before screens entered my life as a kid, without the constant messages and showing up at someone's door unannounced, going somewhere without a phone. How strange this all seems now...

As of last week, I started the habit of a screen-free Monday, and it's been such bliss. It feels great to stay away from screens for an entire day. It helps me slow down and be more present, not constantly feeling the need to do things. It's nice not to hear from anyone for a day ✨

Alex, I love this—thank you for sharing so openly. I remember you mentioned starting screen-free Mondays on one of my notes, and it’s so lovely to hear how it’s going.

Taking a day offline feels like such a gentle, powerful way to reclaim presence. It’s amazing how even one quiet day can remind us that we belong to ourselves—not just our inbox or notifications ✨

I hope others feel encouraged to try something similar. Small choices like this ripple outward. Grateful to have you in this space 🫶
