Getting a grip on your screen time and restoring a digital balance

Last summer I realised my screen time was out of control. I was constantly distracting myself with an endless loop of checking messages, social media, news and email and I was clocking up an average of 6.5 hours a week on my iPhone.

When fear stops you from starting

Whether it's a new weight loss program or writing a book, sometimes getting started is the biggest hurdle.
