A 30 day social fast? Tatiana takes us through looking into embracing mindfulness in a more analogue life, in the same way, we would look at a yoga or meditation practise.

We feel the need to always be online and we seem to pride ourselves in answering emails straight away, which could be at the cost of our relationships.

Why do we need to approach mindfulness in the digital age? You'll be a better human, you'll be a better creative, you'll be a better boss or colleague.

How? When Tatiana's colleagues at work are having a hard time thinking or being creative, she will tell them to go for a walk, instead of simply staring at the screen.

Tatiana is a big fan of making a list for the day, during her morning routine, however, she doesn't put it on her phone, she will write it down. This is so, she can really connect with her thoughts and set herself up for the day. Her friend does a do not disturb Sunday, where she will completely disconnect, in order to send all of that time with her partner.

The real why, JOMO. The joy of missing out. Who knows what you will miss if you're not on Twitter for one day? You can take part in the things you normally wouldn't outside of social and you can reconnect your soul.
