Digital Detox & Wellbeing Talks, Workshops, Courses and Coaching

It's not unusual for technology to leave us feeling overwhelmed, stressed, and struggling to stay focussed. We often feel the need to be always connected, always busy and never seem to have time for the important things like relationships, careers, or even our own health.

But it doesn't have to be this way

Climate change is the defining crisis of our time and time is running out. The scientific consensus is that humans are the leading cause of climate change.

However, did you realise that your online digital activities have serious consequences for the planet too.

Colin Corby invites the audience to explore what it is to be human in the age of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Taking inspiration from the latest ideas from technology, neuroscience and philosophy, Colin asks some difficult and thought provoking questions.

Individual 1:1 coaching from Colin Corby aka 'The Digital Detox Coach' specifically designed for busy professional women to help you achieve a healthier more productive and sustainable life with technology. It might sound counter intuitive but creating boundaries, having regular periods for offline rest and recovery, and by reconnecting with yourself, other people and the world around, you will perform better at work, be more resilient to stress and burnout, and have to time for what really matters to you.

Our Public Speaker Programme is an immersive three-month journey designed to empower individuals with the skills, confidence, and strategies needed to excel in public speaking. Led by esteemed speakers Ana Smith and Colin Corby, the programme offers tailored guidance and comprehensive support to each participant, ensuring their growth and success in the realm of public speaking. This programme is offered jointly by Brightflare Performance Solutions, USA and Technology Wellbeing Ltd, UK.

The Introduction to Digital Detox online course includes five lessons and over one hour of content including examples, theory, digital detox tools and challenges for homework.

This course is ideal for anyone who not only wants to learn about how taking regular digital detoxes can help achieve a healthier and more sustainable technology/life balance, but also wants practical tools and challenges that can make this happen.

High performance teams require their managers and professionals to be able to perform at their best, consistently, healthily and sustainably. To do this they need the information, understanding and tools to balance their work with their needs as biological and social beings. Getting this right can improve productivity, creativity, teamwork and create resilience to stress and burnout.

But we have to live and work with technology which brings enormous advantages and possibilities, but it also poses many significant personal and organisational challenges. It’s no surprise that many people struggle to strike a sustainable balance between their online and offline lives, leading to a range of complex issues, such as

• Reduced ability to focus, be creative and productive and are more easily distracted.
• Having no time for essential self-care leading to poorer health and well-being outcomes.
• Feeling less connection with colleagues and other people even though fully connected online.
• Overusing digital devices leading to the buildup of stress, anxiety, and even burnout.

This half day program helps employees and managers develop the essential skills to more effectively manage their focus and attention, be more productive and present with the people around them.

Would you like to win back an extra 30 minutes a day?

Dive into the strange world of why we love to be distracted, how the environment and digital habits trigger our behaviour, why being busy is not the same as being productive and how attention management allows you to get more done and with less stress.

We live in a world where we have constant access to technology 24/7 and the boundaries between work and our personal lives have become blurred. Multiple apps compete for our attention, and algorithms and AI try to anticipate, personalise and influence the choices that we make. Therefore it's no surprise that the cost of so many distractions is the build up of stress and the feelings of constantly being busy.
But it doesn’t have to be this way.

This workshop is ideal for organisations with remote and hybrid employees.

In this workshop participants will be provided with information and insights, and easy to implement practical strategies to improve focus & productivity, and to reduce the cumulative build up of stress.

A team building workshop to bring people together through an entertaining insight into our own reality and why what you think you see is not all that there is! It will challenge you to ask more questions and pay more attention to yourself, your colleagues and everything around you.

The pandemic has increased the levels of anxiety, stress and work-related burnout risks worldwide. The more digitally transformed the workplace becomes, the higher the risk of burnouts. While digital transformation at work has many benefits and makes it possible for employees to work remotely and more efficiently, it creates business challenges that impact employee’s productivity, creativity and morale.
