Healthy Digital Habits and Screen Time Workshop

Want to better manage your screen time? Join others in person who are curious to learn more about healthy digital habits and screen time at this free library workshop.

Screen time is the time you spend in front of screen-based devices while looking at smartphone, computer, TV, gaming, and more. At this workshop, you’ll have a chance to reflect on your current screen time and discuss with other workshop attendees. You’ll learn about why screen time is important to pay attention to and manage intentionally. Then, during the workshop, you’ll start making safe, temporary changes to your phone’s settings to help you get in more control of how often you use your phone. Your instructor will guide you how how to make these changes in your phone and answer questions along the way.

What You’ll Learn

- Info about the health impacts of screen time.

- Tips for unlocking more free time for personal goals, like reading books, eating healthy, and getting better sleep.

- How to turn on a free report included in iOS and Android phones that tells you exactly how much time you spend on your phone, what you are doing, and choose what apps to set time limits on.

- How to manage your notifications and alerts so they work for you.

- And more!

What To Bring
