Finding A Balance between Distraction and Connection

CONCORD FREE PUBLIC LIBRARY MONDAY, FEBRUARY 10 at 7:00 - 8:30 pm

Join us for this community conversation about the powerful pull of digital devices, and discover ways to shift our attention toward a healthy relationship with technology. Adrienne Principe, founder of Turning Life On, will illuminate how tech experts harness neurobiology to grab our attention and what we can do about it. Be Well Be Here founder and mindful wellness consultant, Lara Wilson, will share simple mindful practices that help us shift our awareness toward healthy habits of attention.

LEARN MORE ABOUT:

Persuasive Design – the science behind tech programs that harness the flow                                              between anxiety and boredom to keep us hooked
