About the Book

2023 Australian Business Book Awards Winner - Technology Suffering with toxic tech-habits? Zoom fatigue? Digital dementia? Burnout? Many of us have adopted unhealthy and unsustainable digital habits that are not only putting a dent in our performance and productivity, they are also seriously impacting both our physical health and mental wellbeing. But it's no longer realistic to simply throw away our laptops or cancel our Netflix subscriptions. Whether we love it or loathe it, technology is here to stay. Dear Digital, We Need to Talk provides realistic, research-based ways to cultivate healthy and helpful digital habits that work with our brains and bodies, rather than against them. It presents a menu of practical micro-habits designed to bolster your productivity and support your wellbeing in our always-on, digitally distracted world. This book does not advocate for a #digitaldetox (in fact, it explores why detoxes don't work), nor does it propose that you digitally amputate yourself. Instead, Dear Digital, We Need to Talk will help you take back control of your attention and use technology in ways that will support your performance and wellbeing, rather than stifle it.
