iPhones, tablets, and screens are part of daily life — but overuse can quietly sabotage your well-being. Here’s what you need to know:

šŸ˜µā€šŸ’«Ā 1. Digital Eye Strain: Staring at screens for hours causes blurred vision, dry eyes, and headaches. It's called Computer Vision Syndrome — and it’s more common than you think.

šŸ“‰Ā 2. Poor Posture = Tech Neck: Hunching over your phone strains your neck and spine, leading to chronic pain and stiffness. It can even affect your breathing and mood.

🧠 3. Sleep Disruption: The blue light from screens messes with your melatonin — the hormone that regulates sleep. Late-night scrolling = restless nights and tired mornings.


šŸ§ā€ā™‚ļøĀ 4. Reduced Physical Activity: More screen time = more sitting. That sedentary lifestyle increases risks of obesity, diabetes, and heart issues over time.


šŸ’¬Ā 5. Mental Health Impact: Constant notifications, social media pressure, and comparison culture can fuel anxiety, stress, and low self-esteem — especially in teens.


šŸ“µĀ Quick Fixes You Can Start Today:

  • Use the 20-20-20 rule: every 20 mins, look 20 feet away for 20 seconds

  • Avoid screens 1 hour before bed

  • Sit upright — shoulders back, screen at eye level

  • Take movement breaks every hour

  • Limit screen time with digital well-being tools

Your phone is smart — but youĀ should be smarter. Use it, don’t let it use you. šŸ™Œ
