What might it feel like to be screen free or lower the amount of time spent on a screen? What might you do instead of being in front of a screen? How might you deal with the temptation to use a screen?

[OakParkHSCounseling @CounselingOPHS]

Next week is Screen Free Week!
Screen-free means staying off screens like T.V.s, computers, & gaming consoles or lowering the amount of time spent on them.
Interesting Facts: Screen time can cause body aches, affect attention, & can impair empathy.

Spend some time in nature today.
Whether it's taking a walk, smelling the flowers, or sitting by a tree, nature can make you feel calmer.
