Reviews
I love this book. It shows the damage from our overconnected society and the power of disconnecting in a personal, fascinating, funny, and insightful way. I highly recommend it., In a world where our phones and screens distract us more than we’d like to admit, I love that my friend Carlos did this fascinating experiment to give us the proof we need: The life we want isn’t found in front of a screen. With his witty and timely wisdom, he helps us find new ways to enjoy life by establishing healthy limits so screen time won’t be our lifeline any longer. This book is a must read!

Synopsis
USA TODAY BESTSELLER Change your relationship with technology. Change your life. Share. Post. Reply…Most of us have gotten so used to notifications and alerts, pings and rings, that even if we don’t want to be on our phones so much, we don’t know what to do about it. The constant flow of information affects our brains, relationships, and emotional well-being. We feel stuck, overwhelmed, overstimulated, and we want a way out. Like many of us, podcaster and author Carlos Whittaker had lived for years in an always-on, always-connected world–and he felt more disconnected than ever from God, his community, and even himself. When Carlos Whittaker realized how many hours he was on his phone, he took extreme measures to see how unplugging could change his body and soul. In Reconnected, Carlos shares the challenges, surprises, and profound insights of his self-imposed exile from technology, spending nearly two months screen-free at a monastery, an Amish farm, and at home. As you journey with Carlos through this life-changing experiment you will discover: how to retrain yourself to notice the world before you notice your texts; what technology does to your brain and what you can do about it; ways to prioritize in-person relationships even if you need screens for work or school; why turning down your phone’s volume turns up God’s voice in your life; the newfound joy of being bored, getting lost, and not having to Google every question that comes to your mind. Blending wisdom from the past, practices of intentionality and community, and Whittaker’s signature engaging communication style, Reconnected will inspire and equip you to reset your life in a tech-saturated world. It’s time to take back control of your life from technology and recover the lost art of being human. You were made for more. This is how you start living again., In the summer of 2022, author Carlos Whittaker spent seven weeks entirely screen free, splitting his time between a monastery, an Amish farm, and home with his family.
