In our fast-paced, always-online world, the internet and digital devices have become a central part of our daily lives. We use them to work, learn, shop, stay informed, and keep in touch with friends and family. But constant connection can also be exhausting. Many people feel stressed, distracted, or even overwhelmed by the endless flow of notifications, messages, and updates.

This conversation session is designed for those who want to discuss the idea of taking a break from technology – also called a “digital detox.” Together, we will explore questions such as: Why do people choose to disconnect from the internet? What are the benefits and challenges of spending less time online? How can we set healthy limits with our phones, social media, and other devices?

Participants can share their own experiences and opinions while learning new vocabulary related to technology, lifestyle, and wellbeing. We will practice speaking and listening skills through guided discussions, group activities, and thought-provoking questions. Examples and short stories will help bring the topic to life and give everyone the chance to contribute in a relaxed, supportive atmosphere.

By the end of the session, you will:

Understand the concept of a technology detox and its potential effects

Learn and use practical English expressions to talk about habits, routines, and feelings

Gain ideas for reducing screen time and improving balance in daily life

Improve confidence in expressing opinions and asking follow-up questions

No technical knowledge is required – just curiosity and a willingness to share. Whether you want to try a digital detox yourself or simply understand the idea better, this session will be a chance to connect with others, practise English, and discover new ways to recharge in the offline world.
