OurHourOff

#OurHourOff is a movement of people switching off from screens and digital distraction for 1 hour a day: making time for quality, human connection.

Have you made any little changes to screentime habits that have had HUGE ripple effects on your day? It might have been deleting a particular app, no screens at dinner? For us it's no screens first thing in the morning. Keeps our mornings productive and focused 👌 How about you?

[OurHourOff @OurHourOff]

Are screens getting between you and genuine rest? When we're at our most exhausted these little screens with their notifications and their blue light can be the one thing that keeps us up and going... but is it what we need?

As 'home schooling' draws to an end for some – it's a great time to reflect on the role screens play in our homes and whether it needs tweaking. What's working and what isn't working for your family when it comes to screentime?

It's Friday. You may have already been staring at your screen for two hours 🤪. Time for elevensies 💪. We're E3 🙋‍♀️ How about you?

Tuesday can be a tough one. The feelings of rest and renewed energy from the weekend are starting to fade. The perfect day for an #OurHourOff FOR YOU. Our #OurHourOff will be a new book, a big mug of tea and an early sleep. What about you?

Another timely and immensely helpful piece by @charliemackesy reminding us to look to brighter times 🙌

Aaaaaand make that something scheduling in some screenfree time over the weekend 🙌 It might be as simple as a walk each morning with your devices left safely in the home (sounds a bit wild I know!)

If you're finding it hard to slow down and feel calm try and find the time to ditch the screens and head outside (whatever the weather) and search for signs of Spring! 🌱🌱🌱🌱 It doesn't have to be an empty forest, it might be your own garden or a local park 💪 #OurHourOff

Annnnnd it's Monday 👁️ 👁️ If you're not feeling rested and ready for another week ask yourself if these pesky screens have anything to do with it? Screen use near bedtime can really impact our sleep quality 👎 👎 👎 Top tip: no screens in the bedroom 💪 #OurHourOff

Is it time for a recharge? What could you do this weekend to help you feel rested and ready come Monday morning?

Things to look forward to 🙌 So lovely to focus on the things that we miss and remembering that we WILL be able to do them all again 💪

What's on your list?

Screens are so interwoven in our lives nowadays that it's tricky to step back and unplug. When was the last time you had an evening without any screens?

[OurHourOff @OurHourOff]

The idea that we can stay focused on these screens for several hours a day is totally unrealistic. If this is feeling like an unproductive Monday for you – get up, take a walk, have some water, or better still have a think if any of today's work can be done on paper! #OurHourOff

[OurHourOff @OurHourOff]

Another week down folks 🙌 For so many - the weekend is the best time to unplug from your many screens and devices. Without the lure of work email and other commitments it can feel a bit more do-able - will you be joining us this weekend for an #OurHourOff ?

#OurHourOff

[OurHourOff @OurHourOff]

@ElaineUskoski Sounds like a really good balance 💪

[OurHourOff @OurHourOff]

Monday is a great time to think about when and how you want to use screens this week – what's your plan for the week? We're doing no screens first thing in the morning or before bed 💪 (That's 2 x #OurHourOff for those of you counting 😜 )

[OurHourOff @OurHourOff]

Some wisdom to get us to the weekend from fab @CharlieMackesy 🙌 Anyone else having a looooong week? 🙋‍♀️ Remember that this is a hard time and we're all just doing our best 👌

Love this screentime tracker by bullet journalist Koalaty Bujo Putting pen to paper and really seeing how you're spending your time is such a fab idea! Now to work on my drawing 😬

A little Shakespeare on a Sunday to remind us that today really is THE day to plan the week ahead. We find that good habits never just happen, we need to prioritise them. Write down what you need to do to feel good and make it happen 💪

[OurHourOff @OurHourOff]

Sharing this from @thefabstory for anyone who needs to see it.
Life feels pretty overwhelming at the moment. As ever screentime is a tricky thing to balance... do what you can to recognise the signs of overwhelm and try these simple steps to reset 🙌
