But, you can\ndefinitely optimize your screen time to minimize its negative impacts.\nUnfortunately, people often engage with screens for much more than required.\nOne of the reasons for this is that they think that screens are harmless.

It can lead you to inaction, anxiety and depression. It\nalso makes you less sensitive toward others&#8217; emotions and causes emotional\nnumbness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Sleep problems<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The light from the screen\ndisturbs the secretion of melatonin, a hormone which is responsible for sleep.\nWatching mobile, laptop or television till late at night delays your sleep and\nmakes you feel tired and restless. It also deprives you of all the benefits of\ngood and sound sleep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Neck and\nBack pain<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Continuous screen time can\nlead to bad posture, making your neck and back muscles Stiff and can cause neck\nand back pain. To avoid stiffness in your body, you should take breaks while\nworking with the screen. During the breaks, you should do some physical\nactivity like walking or stretching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Eyestrain<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Looking at a screen for a long time causes <a href=\"https:\/\/genuinenewsblog.com\/taking-care-of-your-eyes-in-the-digital-age\/\">eye fatigue<\/a> which can further lead to double vision, headaches and concentration difficulties. Your eyes also get dry and irritated after a long screen time. In addition, digital devices release blue light that can lead to macular degeneration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Obesity<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sitting in front of the\nscreen for too long makes you physically inactive and obese. On the other hand,\nif you have a habit of eating in front of the screen, you may often eat more\nthan your requirement and become obese.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You should be aware and disciplined to limit your screen time and protect yourself from its negative impacts. A few suggestions to optimize your screen time are &#8211; avoid looking at the screen after an hour of waking up and before an hour of going to bed; keep your bedroom and dining space screen-free; keep your posture correct while working with the screen; do regular eye exercises; take a break of 1 minute after every 20 minutes and look away from the screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block\" data-ad-format=\"autorelaxed\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0548205572604330\" data-ad-slot=\"9687113448\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Screens are an essential part of everyone&#8217;s life.
