We all lead busy lives, and in this day and age, full of technology & 24-hour access, it can become overwhelming. While I’d never suggest technology is a bad thing (try separating me from my iPhone and you will be met with an intense stand-off), it does have its place.
However, it’s crucial to remember that we all need a break at times. Step away from the computers, smart phones and endless cable stations. The simplest way to escape these devices is to simply go outside, take some deep breaths, and weather permitting – a short walk.
Technology should be there to ease your stress, not add to it, and taking a small vacation from technology is bound to relax and refresh you. If nothing else, getting away from all the “noise” will leave you more likely to appreciate everything technology has to offer – once you’re ready to plug back in.
