Get My Screen Time Down

A Digital Wellbeing & Crochet Workshop Understand your phone habits, spend less time scrolling, and learn to crochet a home for your phone “My screen time is too high.” If you’ve said this to yourself lately, this workshop is for you. Past participants have reduced their screen time by up to 75% sustainably. Join Michelle, neuroscientist and founder of Reclaim, and Jin, neuroscientist and science communicator, for an afternoon combining phone habits, self-discovery, and crochet. Understand why you reach for your phone, discover small ways to change your screen time, and make something lovely along the way. Part one: What is your phone doing for you? (5pm - 7pm @ Pile of Books) It’s easy to assume we need more discipline to spend less time on our phones. But our habits often serve a purpose: a little relief when we’re stressed, a break when we’re tired, or something interesting when we’re bored. Michelle will help you explore what drives your scrolling, how your emotions and energy shape your phone use, and what small changes might work for you in everyday life. The goal isn't to fight your phone, but to understand your habits and make more room for what matters to you. Part two: Give your phone a home (7pm - 8pm @ a close by location) Next, Jin will guide you through crocheting a cosy pouch for your phone. Why? Beyond being a fun, hands-on activity, creating a home for your phone has been the No. 1 thing that past participants reported to be most helpful in building new phone habits.
