Digital Wellness

IIT Delhi

September and October 2024

Dear All,

Thank you again for attending the workshop on Digital Wellness at IIT Delhi in September and October 2024.

As mentioned at the end, I recommend challenging yourself to do the “iPhone effect” (see research notes below). For one day try relationship/friends/family time with no other devices in line of sight and see how it makes you feel. This will allow you to learn more about your relationship with technology. Remember, it’s all about you being in control as opposed to tech being in control of you!
