In today's episode, I speak with Bryce Reddy the creator of the popular IG account @mombrain.therapist. We talk about creating conscious and intentional screen time limits for both children and their parents. The bones of her message are that screentime boundaries and wellness start with us. We must model healthy screen use to ensure our children develop mindful habits themselves. She offers many ways we can begin checking in with ourselves and our children to strike a more healthy balance between virtual and real-time. Check-In Questions if you're beginning to feel screen use is being relied on too much in your home: Are we, or the kids, neglecting responsibilities in favour of screens? Are we leaning more into online relationships and pulling away from in-person relationships? Are we losing more time than we would like on our screens? Are we losing self-care tasks? Have I stopped doing other activities that I previously enjoyed? What's behind the uptick too? Are there potential mental health issues? Anxiety? Bullying? Are we spending enough time together as a family? Am I pervading family activities?
