Take A 30-day Break From Social Media to Improve Your life, Family, & Business. If you say, I don't think I could give up facebook/instagram for even a week, then you probably need to give it up more than you know! Being a mom is tough work and if you think that social media is your only escape, then you're not looking into other options! Learning how to make friends is a major part of growing up, and friendship requires a certain amount of risk. If teenagers aren't getting enough practice talking to people and getting their needs met in person and in real time, many of them will grow up to be anxious adults. Establish technology-free zones in the house and technology-free hours when no one uses the phone. We are here to help.

Are you addicted to your phone? Do you find yourself engaging online but unengaged at home with the people right in front of you? Do you spend hours scrolling through Facebook, Instagram, newsfeeds, and YouTube videos? Have your devices become divisive--dividing you from family and friends and, most importantly, God? What would happen if you took some time to fast from social media in order to get social with God and others once more? In the pattern of her popular 40-Day Sugar Fast, Wendy Speake offers you The 40-Day Social Media Fast. This "screen sabbatical" is designed to help you become fully conscious of your dependence on social media so you can purposefully unplug from screens and plug into real life with the help of a very real God. Take a break from everyone and everything you follow online. Disconnect in order to reconnect with the only One who said "follow me."

Three days. No Facebook. No Twitter. No social media. Just time to detox, discern, and decide. Take a three-day social media fast with Unfriend Yourself and learn to examine your use of social media from a Christian perspective. This book will guide you in evaluating your fast by asking challenging questions such as: What happens when I broadcast myself on the Internet? Do I see a difference between my interactions on social media and my interactions face-to-face? Do I rule my media, or do my media rule me? While reading Unfriend Yourself, you will learn to think critically, biblically, and practically about social media. Whether you choose to leave the social media scene, engage in it less, or engage in it more after your social media fast, your perspective on social media will never be the same. “Without throwing the baby out with the bathwater, Kyle challenges the Christian to a God-honoring approach to social media involvement. Well researched and thought through, Unfriend Yourself avoids the emotional arguments and instead presents a provocative ‘must read’ for any students, young adults, and generations beyond who want to be responsible in approaching social media from a biblical worldview.” – Dr. Bob MacRae, Professor of Youth Ministry at Moody Bible Institute

Against a backdrop of increasingly intrusive technologies, Trine Syvertsen explores the digital detox phenomenon and the politics of disconnection from invasive media. With a wealth of examples, the book demonstrates how self-regulation online is practiced and delves into how it has also become an expression of resistance in the 21st century.

Is the first thing you do when you wake up to grab your phone and check notifications? Do you often end up spending 10-20 minutes on social media without realizing it? What about the discomfort when your phone is not around, or there's no Internet connection? These might seem like innocent daily actions, but are actually habitual behaviors that are dangerous for our mind, body and spirit. By preferring digital socializing, we forget how to communicate face-to-face and even avoid it. We start living in our feeds and are often prompted to join new channels. We add people we don't really know to a friend list that doesn't mean much in real life. And we follow the lives of people, while becoming unhappy about what we lack in ours. But you don't need to live this way. It's time to get back your attention, time and peace of mind, to start forming real relationships again and be more productive. All that can happen by not just learning how to use social media mindfully and with limits, but also ditching it for some time to be free from its negative influence. This book will show you how!

Do you find yourself missing out on those "in the moment" moments? Do you find yourself continually making sure you are "photo-ready?" Do you find days seem to zoom by with nothing to show for? Are you affected by what people post, like, or comment on when it comes to your social media presence? Is clout something that matters to you? Chances are if you have said yes to any of the following, you may be spending more than the average amount of time online and on social media. ​There is a fine line between a healthy dose and an overdose. In this book, I share with you the research that looks at the ​emotional, psychological, and physical impact social media anxiety and addiction have, as well as how to take a step back from being connected. Remember, we have one life to live, and if we continue to live through our smart devices, it does not matter how many photos, videos, or tags we get, because we won't have lived it. We will have let life pass us by, and we would have allowed those precious moments to be a memory. Who is this book for? ● Someone eager to learn about what it means to be addicted to social media. ● Someone who wants to step back and regain control over their devices. ● Someone who wants to detox their brain! ● Someone who feels anxious about being separated from their social media accounts. It may seem bizarre to think an inanimate object could control us, but look around you, and how many people do you see glued to their phone? Stop and smell the roses with my book; I am sure you will find a moment of peace, clarity, and freedom from your smart device. If you are ready to take control, turn the page and start your journey!
