If you are a parent - the stakes can feel higher. How you use your devices directly affects how your child's relationship with technology. The U.S Surgeon General thinks that social media ought to come with a warning label, just like a pack of cigarettes does. Yikes!

How this course helps you:

1) Get Stuff Done: Traditional productivity advice is decades old (Pomodoro anyone?) and doesn't account for today's asynchronous, globally distributed nature of school and work. We'll explore how productivity tips from the past could actually be degrading your ability to set goals and complete tasks.

2) Become resilient to burnout: Emails over dinner and texting while with family & friends; are commonplace. Each of these digital interactions imposes a mental health tax - eventually leading to burnout. We'll learn how to leverage Digital Wellness as a "trampoline" to bounce back and regain your sense of agency!

3) Ignite your creativity: In an era of digital transformation, our ability to explore and be open-minded has dwindled, shrinking our creativity. We'll dive deep into ways to counterbalance the impact of some common digital trends such as Nostalgia in media, content binges etc.

This is an emerging space, and we'll leverage established behavioral science and the latest digital wellness research, to develop a personalized, sustainable action plan that includes targeted exercises to help you stay on track. You also have access for 1:1 coaching from the instructor (more information will be provided to enrolled students)
