These days, most of us spend our time looking at screens all day, every day. Whether it’s answering work emails or keeping up with social connections, it can be a lot of stress. Studies have shown that blue light from screens is not ideal for our bodies or our minds. From suppressing melatonin to making your eyes sore, it’s not always healthy.
A tiny cabin getaway offers the perfect opportunity to step away from technology and give yourself a break. It allows you to be free of distractions so you can spend some time looking after yourself.
Here’s how a getaway can help you with your digital detox:
- You can take a break from screens. Blue light aside, taking a break from social media and constant notifications can have major benefits. Constantly checking notifications can wreak all sorts of havoc on the body. It disrupts dopamine, locking you into a skewed trigger/reward cycle. It reduces attention span and encourages task jumping, resulting in overwhelm. It can also raise anxiety. Needless to say, taking a break from screens has many benefits.
- Getting out in nature helps rebalance. Spending time in nature is a proven way to lower stress and improve mental health. Natural light can help support healthy circadian rhythms. When you choose a tiny cabin getaway, you can explore our 74 acres of open space in the fresh mountain air.
- It gives you a chance to slow down. If you’re doing a digital detox, there’s nothing better than keeping things slow and simple. On a tiny cabin getaway, you’ve got ample time to read a book, take a walk, or sit and take in the scenery. There’s no rush, no demands, and it’s all about you and your comfort.
