No phones, no mail-pling, just silence. This is the content of the digital detox that Carina Bosten led on Thursday.
- Hopefully people will relax and release their mobiles and focus a little more on their interior, "says Carina Bosten, meditation leader at SVT.
The digital detox, or detoxification, was held in a chapel in Gamla Linköping in the late afternoon. For obvious reasons, SVT was not included in the meditation itself with buzzing cameras, microphones and strong lights.
Important to take a step backBeing constantly connected is everyday for many and then you may sometimes need to take a step back, Carina says.
- Digital ill-health is widespread and many people feel the stress of being available all the time, she says.
Previously, an event was arranged where foreign people would sit quietly in a square in central Linköping.
The dream for Carina Bosten is to get to regular meetings to disconnect everything that is popping up in our normal stressful lives.
