À propos de cet audio

 Winner of the Marshall McLuhan Outstanding Book Award
Entrepreneur’s 12 Productivity and Time-Management Books to Read

“I’m won over to a day with people, not screens….I tried Shlain’s idea. I highly recommend it.” —The New York Times
“Tiffany Shlain is a modern-day prophet, brilliant and incredibly funny in equal measure...24/6 is timeless and timely wisdom.” —Angela Duckworth, #1 New York Times bestselling author

This “wise, wonderful work” (Publishers Weekly starred review) demonstrates how turning off screens one day a week can work wonders on your brain, body, and soul.

Do you wish you had more time to do what you love, think deeply, and focus on the people and things that matter most? By giving up screens one day a week for over a decade, Internet pioneer and renowned filmmaker Tiffany Shlain and her family have gained more time, productivity, connection, and presence.

Shlain takes us on a thought-provoking and entertaining journey through time and technology, introducing a strategy for flourishing in our 24/7 world. Drawn from the ancient ritual of Shabbat, living 24/6 can work for anyone from any background. With humor and wisdom, Shlain shares her story, offering the accessible lessons she has learned and providing a blueprint for how to do it yourself.

“Bolstered with fascinating and germane facts about neuroscience, philosophy, psychology, and the history of the concept of a day of rest” (Publishers Weekly), 24/6 makes the case for incorporating this weekly reset into our 24/7 lives, issuing a call to rebalance ourselves and our society.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"There's great value in the religious tradition of a weekly Sabbath, says filmmaker Tiffany Shlain, who performs this timely invitation with a powerful blend of intellectual confidence and respect for her listeners. As she delivers insights and suggestions that sound deeply true, the author's sensibilities and rock-solid vocals combine to create a presentation that is both thought-provoking and viscerally satisfying. Her message is focused largely on getting away from our screens. She argues that technology is wonderful but leads to habits that are not good for us. She makes the case that a weekly 24-hour screen vacation is the kind of ritual we need to reconnect with ourselves and the people we love. References to cultural history and personal growth wisdom contribute to making this a must-hear audio for the digital age."

I was hoping to be a little more inspired to live 24/6 after reading this book but I just wasn’t. It read like an essay with a few personal anecdotes. Lots of research by others referenced as to what the benefits are and why we need to live tech free for one day a week. Unfortunately it just didn’t hold my interest in the way I was hoping. I also thought there might be more on how tech, particularly social media use is affecting the greater of society.
