So certain places where maybe you decide you're not going to use your phone, certain rooms or maybe on the couch or something like that. I think you can talk to your family and friends about what sort of the phone guidelines are going to be when you're spending time with each other. And that can go a long way.

People do find it very hard to do this kind of thing. So in many of the studies that ask people to reduce their use of their phones or of social media, the compliance is somewhat low, meaning that it's hard to get people to do this. It's just tricky for a lot of people. But in most cases, they do find that when people stick to it, when people do it,

The other thing I would note that can make a big difference in terms of well-being is trying to reduce phone use around sleep. We know that our device use can really interfere with sleep when it's keeping us awake at night. One thing that seems very simple but can make a big difference is charging phones outside of the bedroom when you go to sleep.

Well, I think when it's in the room, the problem is that there's too much temptation for many people to grab it. So, if you, you know, or maybe it's making noises in the middle of the night that's waking you up.
