Going Beyond The Digital & Into The Spiritual
Healing Conversation #784
— Our future will come from connecting with ourselves and taking the action we feel drawn to. Trust yourself. I'm asking for you to express yourself in your fullest. Because that's what I and the world need. You to be yourself. It is time to take full responsibility for your actions and become curious about the world, more than ever before. It is time to take your life in your own hands, away from the distractions of the past. Put fear aside and let go of the anxiety that complexity can bring. It is time to upgrade yourself and allow your powers to emerge. Build resilience to resist the negative media cycle and the lure of extractive algorithms, and be aware of giving yourself too much choice or too many conveniences.
Valeria Teles interviews Sini Ninkovic — the author of “Untethered: Overcome Distraction, Build Healthy Digital Habits, and Use Tech to Create a Life You Love”
The average person consumes over twelve hours of media per day. Eighty-eight percent of Americans feel uneasy leaving their phone at home. It is all too common to hear that our technology has taken over our lives. But what if the problem isn't your smartphone, but just the way you're using it?
After a lifelong struggle with digital dependency, Sini quit his job at Apple to live in a van and begin a long journey toward freedom from technology. But in the process, he learned that the key to inner peace was not found in removing technology from his life, but in rethinking his relationship with it. Along the way, he spoke with countless industry experts, attended intensive meditation retreats, and became a certified Digital Wellness Educator. The tools he discovered were so transformative that sharing them with the world has become his personal mission.
In his groundbreaking and practical new guide to digital freedom, tech-guru-turned-wellness-instructor, Sini Ninkovic argues that there are counterintuitive mindsets and methods for transforming your relationship with technology - and your life along with it.
Sini’s work and mission is to help you redefine your routines, develop healthier digital habits, and live a more fulfilled life in control of your attention. It will show how your smartphone and the apps on it can captivate you, how you can “upgrade” your mind to move away from this dependency, and these tools will help you regain control over your habitual smartphone usage to create a more fulfilled future.
