PODCAST: Put Down Your Phone! Create an Analog Basket
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Are you constantly reaching for your phone without even thinking about it? In today’s fast-paced, screen-filled world, it’s easy to get stuck in the cycle of scrolling—leaving you feeling drained, distracted, and disconnected.
In this calming and practical episode of the Wishing You Well Podcast, Maria Patrick introduces a simple yet powerful self-care tool: the Analog Basket.
Learn how to create your own screen-free sanctuary filled with comforting, creative, and nourishing activities you can turn to instead of your phone. Discover the science behind why analog activities help regulate your nervous system, reduce anxiety, improve focus, and support better sleep.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
• Why scrolling is so addictive (and how it impacts your brain and body)
• The mental health benefits of unplugging and slowing down
• What to include in your analog basket (with easy, affordable ideas)
• How to make your basket irresistible and easy to use
• The best times of day to replace scrolling with intentional living
If you’re ready to feel calmer, more present, and more connected to yourself, this episode will gently guide you there. Put the phone down… and pick up something that truly nourishes you.
