It is by no means necessary to be constantly reachable, and more importantly, it is not a health ally. It feels good to be offline and it's not that complicated! It's actually good for you to leave your smartphone behind. Here are 3 pieces of evidence!

• Regain focus: By dint of being solicited, our mind can't focus. The many distractions, sounds, and images reduce attention. By putting your smartphone away, you will gain concentration and efficiency.
• Reconnect with others: Who can follow a conversation while reading their emails and checking the weather? No wonder you can't remember the name of that nice person you met at lunch or even that your child has changed his or her schedule ☺ By leaving our smartphones behind, we are more attentive to others and ourselves!
• Get better sleep: No screen, one hour before bedtime. It is now proven, for a peaceful and restful sleep, it is best not to use your smartphone one hour before bedtime. The light from screens disrupts sleep and viewing sometimes anxiety-inducing information does not foster relaxation. Replace your screen with reading or a brain game.
