Creating the habit of leaving your device out of the bedroom may be helpful when you are trying to wind down at night or when getting ready in the morning.
• Set aside “phone-free” time. Make it a priority to spend quality time with friends and family without your cell phone. Outside of device-free time, silencing your phone during meals and during face-to-face time is a good habit to cut back on overall usage.
• Track your cell phone use time. Different smartphones have features for screen time tracking. You may do this exercise for a short period of time. Learn how much time you spend on the device on a regular basis and decide if it is time to limit your smartphone usage.

Sometimes checking the notification will lead to spending more time on your phone and will keep you from other things you were originally doing.
• Have rules for family and friends. Now that phones are part of daily life, we may tend to check apps or respond to a quick text while we are at dinner or in a social setting. Having basic rules when you spend time with your kids, family, and friends may help increase your quality time with them.
