In this episode:

MJ shares how cell phones can increase stress and anxiety by overloading our brains with too much “feel-good” dopamine, similar to a sugar rush, leaving us feeling drained.
MJ explains how overusing phones can mess with our natural ability to enjoy simpler pleasures, like a walk or time with friends, because we’re so used to the constant stimulation.
She talks about a client who dramatically improved her mood and sleep just by reducing her phone time — proof that small changes make a big difference!
MJ introduces the “ACCT” method for reducing phone use: Awareness, Creating phone-free zones, Curating what we look at, and Taking phones out of the bedroom.
MJ recommends setting times when the phone is totally off-limits, like during family dinners or evening wind-downs.
She encourages being mindful of what we consume on our phones — asking, “Is this life-giving or life-sucking?”
She suggests using a traditional alarm clock so your phone doesn’t tempt you during the night; this can help avoid sleepless scrolling and improve rest.
She mentioned going into the science of cell phones on a deeper level on her podcast – you can listen to it here: https://tinyurl.com/MJMVCalm
