Summary

On today’s show, Dr. Emily is joined by author and filmmaker Tiffany Shlain to talk about her book, 24/6: The Power of Unplugging One Day a Week, and why this is important – not just from electronics – but from work, relationships, and whatever other stresses life throws at you.

They discuss how taking a break from technology for one day isn’t as hard as it seems, the benefits of truly unplugging and reconnecting with your partner and family, and tips on having your own “tech shabbat” whether you’re single, married, or have kids. Plus, with less time for tech, there’s more time for sex!
