Off: Your Digital Detox for a Better Life offers a practical approach to stepping back from digital overload. Drawing on her experience as a digital wellness expert, Tanya Goodin helps readers recognize how constant connectivity can affect focus, relationships, and overall well-being.
Rather than advocating a complete break from technology, the book focuses on balance—showing how small, intentional changes can free up time and reduce stress. Through short exercises and simple strategies, readers learn to set boundaries around screen use, manage distractions, and create space for more meaningful activities.
Organized into accessible sections, the book guides readers through practical approaches such as resetting digital habits, finding screen-free ways to relax and focus, spending time offline, and reconnecting with people and experiences beyond their devices.
Compact and visually engaging, Off is designed for everyday use—offering an approachable starting point for anyone looking to be more present, improve their relationship with technology, and reclaim time for what matters most.
Many of us struggle with the near-constant urge to check our phones—the average person interacts with their device more than 2,600 times a day—and this dependence is affecting our relationships, our work, and our quality of life. It seems the technology that was supposed to connect us has tipped us in the other direction, creating unnecessary stress and distance in our lives.
This guide will free up hours of your time and lead you back to the pastimes (and people) you love. Learn to cultivate a healthier relationship with your digital devices by adopting simple practices that encourage mindfulness, deeper connection to others, more restful sleep, and increased creativity.
Illustrated with serene and inspiring photography, Off will help you free yourself from technology and be more present in your own life.
