Enhancing our Mental Health in our Digital Lives
Technology is woven into nearly every part of our daily lives—connecting us, entertaining us, and even supporting our health. But when does helpful tech turn into harmful use? This interactive session explores both sides of our digital world: how technology supports wellness and where it can negatively affect sleep, stress, relationships, and mental health. Together we’ll look at problematic screen use and discuss practical strategies to build a healthier relationship with our devices.
