On today’s episode of the Technology For Mindfulness podcast, I’m going to share with you some of my own journey in grappling with stress and distraction from technology. 

In this episode, you will learn:

• How I’ve developed techniques and habits that I use to stay grounded and focused with my smartphone and other devices and how you can too
• How I deal with distraction in my work and professional life
• An experience I had during my karate black belt test and how that mindset can relate to dealing with digital distraction
• If you’re feeling controlled by technology or that you don’t have any options for relating to your devices differently, the way things in your life now isn’t the way things have to be. 
• How the average person interacts with their phones 2,617 times a day when our instincts drive our phone. This is what can lead us to be more anxious and unproductive. 
• A mindfulness exercise around using your smartphone
