Book excerpt: "Every aspect of our everyday life has been infiltrated by technology. In many cases, technology has the potential to increase productivity in our subjects of study while simultaneously enhancing social participation. Despite these advantages, technology and digital services have the potential to have a detrimental impact on people's emotional, physical, and social well-being. Our interactions with the media have changed as our lives and expectations have changed. To attain digital wellbeing and mindfulness, it is not essential to use technology less frequently. Rather, it is about critically questioning how we use technology and considering why we use it - do we make a constructive decision or do we simply let ourselves be lured by the tempting digital platforms?"--
