I need every person who is either watching or have already watched the video praying for Christina and that the surgery went well, and for Lisa and her family that Chad’s recovery is going well, and that Lisa will be back soon. And all the other girls as well 😊 God bless them 🙏

What happened with Christina?

Because you guys are involved in a lot of social media because of your career, it’s so inspiring to see you guys do this instead of pretending that there are no issues with social media. You guys are so amazing and thank you for putting this out and being the role models you are❤❤

Christina’s little talk about how it adds no value checking up on people’s day to day. THIS! is everything.

Kudos to you guys for doing this! I could probably use something similar in my life but would find it very difficult. Can’t wait to see what tips/insights you have into making this easier to do!

Ooh Can't wait to hear your thoughts and tips on this process, Sending lots of love and prayers Christina wishing you have a smooth recovery and also the rest of the family too hope you are all well 🥰

The way you all are feeling and what you’re experiencing is so relatable.

Wow I really needed this video! Thank you guys so much. I thought it was really interesting how each of you had a different but also very similar experience and it really motivated me to make some changes... Love you guys!!

Thank you for doing this 😊 it’s crazy how much this little device can effect us in such a huge way. My mind is a mess right now and based on your experience with this, it might be just what I need because I also use it as a way to not deal. …Thanks again for all the great insight🥰 Happy to see how positive it effected/helped you all.

"Do you control your device, or does your device control you?" Someone intelligent said this. I've been going spells without my phone as of late (grocery shopping unless i have screenshots of vouchers. I leave it at home, watching TV, and it's charging out of immediate reach, I leave it out of reach so I have to get out of bed to turn my alarm off) there's more I can do but I've found these helping restore concentration to a degree. I believe in you to succeed

Yep… I think I’m gonna do this as well. It is scary, it means I’ll have no more distractions to keep me away from my responsibilities. I don’t even know if I have the courage, I’ve got shows that I don’t want to give up on just yet… Ugh!!! I’m missing the days I wasn’t addicted to screens, things have become too difficult.

⁠@@declangill5138Social media is all about who can get the most attention. I saw a documentary some time ago that made it very clear that the jobs of most people in charge of Instagram, Facebook, TikTok kind of stuff was to keep people on their phone (or their app more specifically, I guess the more people you’ve got spending time on your app, the more money you’ll make). Like notifications, they’re made to bring you back to your phone as soon as you hear “oh you’ve got a new comment!”. They also tailor make their feed so it’s harder for you to get away (because what they’re showing you is everything you wanted to see). To do that they have so many techniques (see how much time you take to look at a post, listen to your microphone, etc.). So yeah, “Do you control your device, or does it control you?” becomes a pretty easy question.

I appreciate you ladies doing a challenge like this. I've been off of social media for going on 4 years now and now I live my life like it never took over my teenage years. I love to play with my daughter, read, write, paint, any kind of arts and crafts, I learned how to exercise for my body properly, Im learning my behavior patters, I'm learning what lessons keep repeating themselves in my life, im learning my triggers the list can go on, ultimately I'm learning how to be a human being and not a human doing ❤

This was Ana amazing vid I’m glad you guys got to focus more on yourselves during this challenge and reconnect with yourself love ya girls keep up the good work ❤

This is a huge eye opener for some people. My and my husband deleted all social media about 3 years ago and it’s been much more peaceful, also can easily go without my phone. More people need to do this and stick with it

I love that some of you guys aren’t just doing this and going back to your phones you want to take this into the rest of your life!!!

9:10 oh man Lauren you’re amazing

This is so inspiring , I needed this. I know how harmful too much screen time is , but lacking motivation to actually takes steps and put limits . Thank you for doing this and sharing I just downloaded a app that gives me reminders to stop and be mindful

One thing that surprised me is that they listened to so much podcasts that they stopped listening to music. I may just be obsessed with music because there are one or two podcasts that I really like listening to but it would take me several days to get through an one hour show because I would keep switching to music 😃 Also, like Kath said, it is important to have a balance of what you are consuming vs creating! This is the exact thought that made me realise I am consuming too much media but not creating anything. One tip I have is to set time limits on social media apps on your phone, which is a feature available on most phones!

I loved it! So inspiring! 😊

Please continue doing this! I especially enjoyed hearing those that said things about prayer! Yes! God! Remember Him?! ❤

Good for yall to give up what you usually do and your routines and give a chance for change and actually find a joy in doing and then take something way from it and not just see it as a failure and keep going life. Its a good reminder to Never Give Up on anything. ❤

Ooooh I love this!!! 💖Now I'm being very motivated to be more disciplined lol! I definitely relate to turning to social media to distract myself from emotions I need to process. And besides that, I just end up wasting so much time when I should be working on these projects I want to get done. 😭 Thank you for this video!

I still listen to songs and artists I listened to as a kid. Love it!

I love this kind of videos, girls! you're so amazing. you guys help me with my english with this 😂

Me watching this video while waisting my time with scrolling on KZread

I really liked this video idea. It was so interesting. I was thinking, it would be cool if you did other challenges for a week. Maybe you could show what you eat in a week? 😊

Love Cimorelli 😊

I love this. I remember once being super addicted to fb. I did a month-long fast from it. When I came back, I deleted all of the notifications and I never have been as obsessed with checking all of the notifications since. It was awesome. My most powerful fast was a week when I couldn't do any social media including YT, except posting my finished things on IG and posting my YT videos. I am amazed at how often I use YT to avoid being alone with my thoughts. I don't think that eliminating social media permanently is necessary and yet I do think we need more balance as a people. More intentional in use and more intentional in taking time off. Even podcasts. Picking a favorite or two and being intentional about the time listening to them could be powerful. I have been doing no FB on Sundays for a few years now. I think I need to up that game. I tend to put YT videos on while I am crocheting and knitting on Sundays. I am committing to a change. There are a couple of religious videos I would like to partake of, otherwise no YT on Sundays from now on. I also have a really hard thing happening right now. I think after I send this comment and share this video on FB, I'll be taking an 8 day fast. I'll be off socials until Aug 7th. I think I'll do the no movies, unless with my kids, and no books except scriptures. I want time alone with my thoughts and time for prayer. Music is ok but I also want to be intentional about that as well. Thank you!

Love this I will try it ❤

I am going to try this for sure.

Hi girls. I'm a fan from Brazil and the first video I watched of you was "I won't give up". I've watched it a million times and that's been like 10 years. I watched it again today and would like, if possible, for you to replay it again. What about? A big kiss and hug to all.

Amy with MR&MRS Cimorelli cup is a whole vibe ❤😂 11:59

I did it for 2 weeks, a big-time eye opener. Will be doing it one week out of the month

You guys inspired me to try this starting tomorrow. Wish me luck 😬

Happy bday to Amy!!! ❤🎉

To anyone who needs to hear this: don’t blame yourself too much for finding it hard to get off your screens, especially off social media. Sure you’ve got a big role to play in all of that but social media has their fair bit of tactics to keep you on their apps. I watched a documentary some time ago that made it very clear that the jobs of most people in charge of Instagram, Facebook and TikTok kind of stuff was to keep people on their phone (or their app more specifically, I guess the more people you’ve got spending time on your app, the more money you’ll make). Like notifications, they’re made to bring you back to your phone as soon as you hear “oh you’ve got a new comment!”. They also tailor make their feed so it’s harder for you to get away (because what they’re showing you is exactly what you wanted to see). To do that they have so many techniques and tactics (they see how much time you take to look at a post, listen to your microphone, etc.), it’s quite concerning.

This was super fun to watch!! *sorry for the comment delay** I’m glad you girls went a whole week without being on your phones. I’m impressed 😊 I could never go a week without being on my phone!

This is inspiring for sure. My main question - How will you be keeping this up when you do so much on KZread and social media for work?

this video reminded me of the song Pictures of Mountains by Cody Fry, and the fact that life is so much better if you live in it, rather than scrolling on your phone

I just logged out of Instagram and FB because of this. I've literally been lying in bed all day. I'm going to get up and off my phone for the afternoon now!

I definitely want to try this soon.

lauren is soo relatable

It's really a very hard, and unrealistic to live in this Era of interconnected lives, where smartphones are the important gadget of getting information, and be updated. But it's not impossible to live without it :)

First to comment and I'm so excited for new video already ❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉

It’s a few days late Amy but happy birthday 🎊🎁🎂

The technology fast is tough for sure but you do connect more with the world and the people you love when you aren’t watching or scrolling. We did this for two weeks in our church and it is an intentional effort not to mindlessly scroll or look to technology to fill time. It helps your spiritual growth when you put God before everything else, which is obvious.

I just did basically the same thing as this for 2 weeks and just got back on social media and streaming services today

I deleted social media. I have become really anti-social media. I still have my phone and scroll youtube and stuff. Cause I don't think phones are the problem, I feel like social media is the problem. it's an addiction. I deleted my Twitter and I don't use Instagram except to message friends. And it really has changed things for me. I feel less toxic and terrible about myself. That time I spent on social media I now spend working out, reading, and walking. Has definitely been a positive change in my life.

this is so interesting because my church recently did a month long phone fast and i didn't take part in it but i heard similar things. your testimonies are making me consider taking breaks for at least a few hours/days to see how it goes. i just moved to TN and have no friends here so the only way i find connection right now is through social media, which makes me more reluctant to give it up. i'm wondering how it will be for y'all moving forward since social media is a part of your job?

they make me want to do this challenge too ^^

Its freeing when you ween yourself off your phone and social media. Been deployed and it takes about two weeks to start feeling better in my experience. You realize how much time there is in the day when youre forced to touch grass lol

Luv u guys💗💕💖🫶✨️💝💓

The first one looks a lot like Alex Morgan. Hahah.

I go to summer camp every year for a week and that means no phone. Which I’m fine with, but I definitely could not do no phone at home.

I hope you all are doing well

Yeah no phones is super good for mental health. It’s why when you’re in a behavioral health inpatient center they take your phones so you can have more mental room to get healthier.

watching this feels so ironic

Honestly a more approachable way to try this is to just stop mindless scrolling. I used to only be one my phone when notifications came up and my mind was so much clearer. But I didn't cut it out completely. I fell off the wagon but will definitely be trying again

You girls inspired me girls. I'm doing this challenge next week. Can I play games on my phone at all?? Let me know!!!

😮❤

This might sound bad but I can't even last a day without my phone like IDK what it is lol. Like social media is very toxic like you get caught up on comparing yourself and it is so unhealthy and it effects you mentally. Like I have done this before and that is not going on social media for like a month and see where I was and it literally changed my life and it was recommended by my Therapist. I'm telling you now I do things that takes care of my anxiety and that is one of them and how to learn to cope with it. See I'm 22 and I am young and I have so much time on figuring out what life has in store for me. Like I have been active with my Church and going to the Young Adults service and it actually changed my life like I'm going out there and making friends who is serving to God. I have been the happiest person lately by doing stuff like that and being back and doing things with my family. For instance my sister in law is pregnant with her 2nd child and she is due in October.

Can you use your phone for practical things? GPS. Alarm. Google. As a phone. Calculator. Order food.

Amy is gorgeous

Ok this may be dumb but I thought it says all over the gas station pumps to not use your phone?

Did you guys watch shows and youtube on your television?

Getting up at 0730 isn't early. Try getting up at 0530 every morning 🌞

immediately went and deleted all of my social media apps 😜

2:27-2:34 same

what kind of podcasts do u listen to??

How did you guys actually restrict yourselves/stay disciplined? Did you delete your apps? I feel like I would get too tempted and reinstall them?

What did you girls record on ? Do all of you girls have a camera ?
