Description

You can also check out this episode on Spotify!Screens have become a necessity of modern life. Whether we like it or not, they inform how we work, play, parent, and relate to other people. Technology is a wonderful thing. But too much screen time can negatively affect our health. From sleeplessness and agitation to addiction and social isolation, our relationship with tech directly affects our body and mind.On this episode, Dr. McBride expands on her concept of the Four “I”s. She discusses how to think about screens like we do other “inputs.” Whether it’s alcohol and sugar or Instagram and TikTok, the question isn’t just How much? It’s What is my relationship with the thing I’m consuming? Maintaining digital hygiene takes work. A healthy relationship with technology requires the same self-awareness that we should apply to everything we feed our eyeballs and brains.

Each week, Dr. Lucy McBride talks with her guests like she does her patients — pulling the curtain back on what it means to be healthy, connecting the dots between mental and physical health. To Dr. McBride, health is about more than the absence of disease. Health is a process, not an outcome. It's about having awareness of our medical data, acceptance of the things we cannot control, and agency over the areas we can change. It starts with access to fact-based information to care for our body and mind.
