When was the last time you went 24 hours
without yourtechnology?
Reflect on the day and some of the feelings you experienced.
**This would include any sort of digital media (TV, Music, the Internet, games, phone, etc.)

A recent study asked students in ten universities worldwide to go 24 hours without any media. No internet, no phone, no email, no tv. In an age of constant connection, this study asks how our dependence on media technologies have changed the way we think about the world, our communities, and our relationships.

In a 2011 study by the McCann Worldgroup, 53% of 16-22 year olds said they would rather give up their sense of smell than give up their technology.
To our children (and many of us as well), technology
is becoming almost as important as a basic need.
We must teach them to live and thrive with it,
because without it, they risk feeling lost and
disconnected.

Let’s approach Technology Balance the way we approach Nutrition
Teaching proper diet from a very young age. Food groups, balanced diet, personal responsibility (and the occasional treats!)
As children get older, they begin to have more control over their own diet.
