We Survived a 50-Hour Dopamine Detox in Silence
✅ Bucket List #6: Survive a Silent Digital Dopamine Detox
🌿 Hey fellow adventurers and wellness warriors! Jon White here, and I'm excited to share my latest bucket list adventure - a 50-hour silent digital dopamine detox! My gf and I decided to break away from our digital chains and dive deep into a world of mindfulness and nature. We rented an Airbnb in the remote countryside in the UK, and committed to no phones, no screens, no electronics, no sugar, no caffeine, no processed foods, no clocks, no artificial lighting, and - the toughest of all - no talking!
🔇 We’ve heard of silent retreats and certain detoxes, so we decided to combine them all into one ultimate detox wellness challenge! So this is a digital detox + a dopamine detox + a silent retreat + what I'm calling a circadian rhythm cleanse (no clocks and no artificial lighting). Here are the rules: no electronics, no screens, no sugar, no caffeine, no processed foods, no clocks, no artificial lighting, and no talking.
I spend most of my days working at a computer, so I wanted to push myself to break free from the screens and the schedule, ditch the calendar, the phone, social media, all of it. And the goal was to see if doing a detox would have any benefits. Across the three days, we spent a lot of time outdoors, read books, went on walks, went to bed early due to lack of lighting, had fun (also found ourselves bored) and found ourselves frustrated by not being able to talk the whole time. It was an eye-opening experience that taught us the value of silence, the beauty of nature, and the power of detoxing not just our bodies but our minds too.
