There was a recent study where they took the smartphone capacity away from adults for four weeks and so they still had their flip phone they could text and call but they couldn’t get online. They couldn’t be on social media. And what they found is that after four weeks of being away from a smart phone the happiness scores went up as if they had treated these people with an antidepressant and when they looked at these individuals and spoke with them they found that these people were getting better sleep because they weren’t under screens at night so that’s a point of joy that is measured in the research they were actually socialising more another point of joy they were spending time in nature another point of joy eating their food and tasting it not like just staring at a screen and shoving it in their mouth so they were losing all of these natural points of joy just by being on their screen
