Social Media Detox: STOP the scroll, regain control

11th October 11:00 to 13:00
This session, specifically designed for Science and Engineering students, is your FREE opportunity to attend a world famous workshop delivered by the expert Art of Brilliance with the aim of raising the bar to your personal best self, tackling social media, phones and addiction.

This world famous workshop delivered by the expert Art of Brilliance introduces positive psychology, the science of human flourishing and mental wealth.

Screen time – friend or foe?

Smartphones, scrolling, posting, selfies, social media, AI… the last decade has seen an explosion of screen time.

Social media and screen time are woven into the fabric of modern life. When used correctly, the internet is the greatest educational tool the world has ever seen.

But for some, screen time has shape-shifted into anti-social media that has muscled its way into their life like an unwelcome and disruptive visitor.

Attention, for sale!

It is time to take back control with our brand new workshop designed with our trademark fun and interactivity, this session is about getting you to think about your relationships, purpose, goals – and whether the way you are currently using social media fits into the vision of what you want to achieve in your life, connecting you with who you want to be by getting you to consider what really matters to you.

It is a chance to hit pause, and reflect. What you take from the workshop is up to you but we hope you nudge yourself towards being a bit more social and a little less media.

Why? Because in a world of endless information, where your attention is hijacked for profit, it is important that you wrestle control of your life from the apps that are desperate to do it for you.
