Advance Praise
This book felt like a quiet nudge from a friend saying “hey, let’s go outside.” I loved how stripped-down it was - barely any fluff, just clear steps that somehow mirrored what it preached. The simplicity itself was grounding. I’m not about to disappear into the woods, but even trying a few tips shifted my habits. If anything, I wish some sections went a bit deeper, but maybe that’s the point - you close the book and start living.

Where there's a will, there's a way, and the hard truth of this book explains the way…
—William (Amazon)
I would recommend for anyone who has a spare hour and wants to become more screen free.
—Lucy (Goodreads)
If you’re feeling stuck in an online loop, perhaps this could be a gentle push toward awareness and change.
