Solitude is harder to find in an always-connected world and life, at its best, is happening right in front of you.....after all, life is still about flesh, blood, and eye contact.
Regularly unplugging can help remove the unhealthy feelings of jealousy, envy, and loneliness from the 'perfect lives' on social media.
It can also combat the fear of missing out by allowing you to become accustomed to not having every update at your finger tips.
