set a time/place to meet up with friends and have everyone agree to not bring their phones or smart watches or tablets or whatever. either have a set activity or just explore/wander for a couple hours. just lean into the present :)
go on a walk without your phone, mute the chat, organize an emergency hang with the homies, whatever. you literally just have to fill your mind with something else
they’re not as necessary to modern life as it might seem, and having a break from being constantly accessible is important. use cash, ask for directions, sketch the cool moths u see @ the op shop instead of taking a photo!!!
disregard digital validation and don't let numbers be a gauge of how well you're doing. starting out with a small and loyal reader base is way more important than having a million subscribers
