While technology has undoubtedly made our lives easier, it's also allowed us to develop bad digital habits along the way. Unfortunately, the same tech tools that make life so much easier are also competing for our attention - all the time - and we're giving it to them. The result? We're becoming less productive by fueling our tendency towards procrastination and reinforcing how disconnected we feel from ourselves, our loved ones and reality.

In this vein, Your Best Digital Life shows readers how to stop, reevaluate and take control of their digital lives. It presents a new approach to digital wellbeing based on the authors' ""MORE"" methodology (Mobilise. Observe. Reflect. Experiment.) Drawing on the latest research on mindfulness, psychology and neuroscience, this guide will show readers how to put this method into action and allow them to adopt a flexible, forgiving, and realistic approach to using technology.

The book will comprise approximately 10 chapters, all covering different aspects of digital wellbeing with first person stories and scientific factoids woven throughout, plus exercises for the reader to put the techniques into action.

Your Best Digital Life will empower readers by providing them with relevant, practical, novel techniques and guidance to create lasting change in their relationship to technology - ultimately helping them live less stressful, more productive, happier lives.

Reviews for Your Best Digital Life: Use Your Mind to Tame Your Tech

""The best way to get more value from the digital age is not by upgrading our technology. Instead we need to upgrade our psychology to make better use of the technology we already have. It has taken me decades to learn the eye-opening lessons you will find in this book."" --RORY SUTHERLAND, author of Alchemy and Vice Chairman at Ogilvy ""A timely guide to reclaiming inner freedom by guiding our digital habits with intention. Essential for anyone seeking to inhabit their Being, rather than letting technology dictate unconscious habit patterns."" --NIPUN MEHTA, founder, ServiceSpace ""We all know that our smartphones and social media are eating our brains; but fighting back often feels impossible (and besides, FOMO). In this hopeful and practical book, Jonathan Garner and Menka Sanghvi show how you can rethink and redesign your digital life, and offer step-by-step guidance to mobilize your attention, observe your behavior, reflect on your action, and experiment with new tools and habits to build your best digital life."" --ALEX SOOJUNG-KIM PANG, author of The Distraction Addiction, Rest, and Work Less, Do More ""Entrepreneurs often face tech overload. Garner and Sanghvi provide a masterclass in using digital tools without letting them take over your life."" --ANDY BUDD, author of The Growth Equation ""The list of challenges related to our digital devices goes on and on - as do all the manuals and blogs devoted to 'fixing' these problems. But Garner and Sanghvi's book really cuts through, not just because their 'M.O.R.E.' method is highly memorable and effective in shifting our digital habits, but because it's grounded in principles of growth and exploration that apply equally to so many other aspects of our daily lives."" --DAN NIXON, author of The Perpetual Beginner Substack ""Imagine leaving your phone at home next time you go for a walk, to work or to meet a friend for a coffee. What you are feeling now is why everyone needs this book."" --RYAN HOPKINS, author of 52 Weeks of Wellbeing
