The Unplugged Hours

Synopsis

We engage with our phones more than 2,000 times each day ... Imagine what we could gain if we unplugged.

Driven by a growing feeling of anxiety, and guided by her faith, Hannah Brencher set herself the challenge of reaching 1,000 digital device-free hours over a year.

This book contains everything she learned along the way. Rather than advocating we ditch technology, Hannah encourages small, attainable changes through a series of meditations on themes such as:

  • the importance of truly connecting with others
  • how insecurity feeds digital addiction
  • learning to be alone
  • appreciating the mundane beauty of everyday life.

This book will open our eyes to the wonderful things that can happen when we untether ourselves from our devices and live a life more present.
