Every morning, I wake up to the sound of my phone buzzing with notifications. Emails, social media updates, messages from friends, all demanding my attention. It’s like the world expects me to be constantly available, constantly connected. And to be honest, for a long time, I thought I had to keep up with it all. If I didn’t reply to a message within five minutes or post an update on Instagram, I felt like I was falling behind.

But one day, after an especially chaotic week, I realized something: I was tired. Mentally, emotionally, physically, I felt drained. And it wasn’t just the work or the endless scrolling. It was the constant pressure to be everywhere at once. I was always available for others, but I wasn’t making time for myself. So, I decided to make a change.

I started with small steps. I turned off notifications for a few hours every day. I stopped checking my phone first thing in the morning and began spending the first moments of my day in quiet. I allowed myself to sit with my thoughts, drink my coffee without the rush of answering messages, and focus on what I truly wanted to do.

The first few days were challenging. It felt weird not responding to people immediately, like I was missing out on something. But soon enough, I realized that the world kept turning without me needing to be glued to my screen. And more importantly, I felt more present in my own life. I could enjoy a conversation without thinking about what else I needed to do, or read a book without constantly checking my phone for updates.

It wasn’t about completely disconnecting; it was about finding balance. It’s about knowing when to be available and when to step back for a moment of peace. In today’s world, it’s easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle, but sometimes, the most important thing you can do is simply breathe and take a step back to reset. I learned that taking time for yourself isn’t selfish, it’s necessary.

I would use either "Prioritising self-care in a constantly connected world" or "Breaking free from constant connectivity."
