Scrolling

Aloha ‘Ohana,

Here is an important health tip from our staff. As you know we live in an era of constant phone checking. Scrolling through Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, playing with filters on Snapchat, and checking Twitter are things some people do for hours on end.

According to data recently released by the analytics firm Flurry, the average American spends up to 5 hours a day on their phone. That’s 35 hours a week and 140 hours a month that we are wasting on our phones!

The truth is, cell phones run people’s lives. We need to look up from our phones and take in the world around us. There’s so much to do and see instead of staring at your cell phone.

Here are a few things you can do instead of scrolling:

  • Take a walk

  • Take a yoga class

  • Visit a farmer’s market

  • Go for a bike ride

  • Go to the gym

  • Make a bucket list

  • Take a nap

  • Meditate

  • Play with your dog

  • Write in a journal

  • Listen to music

  • Hang out with friends/family

  • Get your COVID booster
