In an always-on world, taking a break from technology is no longer a luxury—it’s becoming a necessity. From burnout to digital fatigue and revenge bedtime procrastination, our hyper-connected lives are taking a toll on our mental well-being.

We explore what a digital detox really means in 2025, why even well-intentioned “focus modes” might not be enough, and how individuals and workplaces alike can set healthier boundaries with technology.
