- 100 days a year, 6 to 7 hours a day. That's how much time I spend on my phone. Time to reduce my screen time, drastically. Follow along as I tackle my phone addiction by reducing my screen time to 30 minutes a day, for one week long. Was it worth it? Would I recommend it? Watch to find out :)

Thank you so much!! 🫶🏻
So 8 months later, how is it going with your screen time?
this video is just *chef's kiss* from the editing to the script, b-rolls, etc 💕 also on the same boat of reducing my screen time from 4hrs to 2hrs! good luck on our journey haha so glad YT recommended this to me!
Thank you so much!! Haha good luck to us!! We can do it :)
Such an amazing video. Keeping this saved as a reminder. Filmmaking is top notch ✨
I watch this video and understood that I have the same problem! And it motivates me to finish lots of unfinished hobbies. Just thank you 💓
Hi Vera, your video popped up in my feed and i'm glad it did :) i love the way you do and cut your videos, well done! Keep the work up. I saw that you only started a month ago. So cool I discovered you when you were small, i'm sure you will sykrocket in no time ❤
You have no idea how much your comment means! :) Thank you so much!! 🫶🏻
Love your honesty! You're such a fresh air. 🖤
aw thank you!! 🫶🏻
thanks so mcuh! My phone addiction is 4 hrs. You have encouraged me to make it 30 minutes, ❤ u Vera!
You can do it!! 🥰
Thanks! ❤️
i dont know how i found you but i did and i love your content keep it up!
thank you so much!! :)
Hi Vera, your video got recommend to me and hence, I watched it and really enjoyed it. You're very natural and seem authentic. I like that. I decided to start the challenge myself but I reduce screen time to 45 minutes per day because I need the phone for work and excluding 1 hour for running. Sometimes I like to listen to a guided run on Nike Running App, which by the way got me started with a healthy and fun running practice. I've been running for the past two years and utterly love it. My recommendation to all of you out there: running without music. Instead listening and practicing with your breathing and feeling your body. Thank you for the video :)
Thank you so much for your kind words! :) And that's amazing, good luck!! You can do it! Also thanks for your suggestion, I'll definitely look into it, I could use some fun workout inspo :)
Hi Very, thank you for your reply. Actually, I feel like in this hyper-self-optimisation-delirium, having fun should be priority. I don't mean to brag but what served me wonders was to stop when I love it most. For instance, when I started running, I always stopped after 30-35 minutes even though I could have ran much further. Instead I went again the next day for another 30 minutes. Same with studying a new language or adopting any other newly desired habit, I would stop before I would wear me out and therefore trigger something in my brain that aspires to do it again. I know it sounds weird, why stop right in the middle, right? Obviously this is not necessary with everything we adopt, but especially with actions that seem more challenging at first.
Good luck with your channel! Thank you for letting me share this insight, perhaps, it will inspire you as well :) Love to wherever you're about!
Ooh that's actually a very interesting approach and makes a lot of sense! You've definitely inspired me, thank you for sharing :)
your singing was so nice
Omg I have the same card game (cat lady). It’s so much fun, I love it
It's so cute right!! Love it
To anyone thinking shrinking down to two hours a day is not enough: Fuck that sentiment! You'd basically more than half down the entire time you spend on the platform and you can learn to space the scrolling throughout the dayand then shorten it down a bit more bit by bit and actually stick to it
Thanks for the reminder to try and get off my phone a bit more!! What was the screen time app you used? Im definitely interested in seeing if i can do this too!❤
I used the built-in iPhone screen time tracker and added it as a widget to my home screen :) Good luck!! You can do it!!
@@verapebbles thank you! Yes I definitely need to do it. Just this morning alone I have spent almost 2 hours on this thing and I keep telling myself put it down and clean! It takes so much discipline! I need to make a schedule to force myself into it ❤️🥰 thank you for the encouragement
what's the game at 3:10 called?
I cannot get myself interested in tiktok (i'm belgian and the belgian /french stuff the algorithm proposes bore me to death) at first i felt like i was missing something and then i realized i get the same doomscrolling vibes from TH-cam shorts, the culturally significant things get talked about on TH-cam only a bit later (we care so much on the new-ness of trends it kinda makes me want to throw up and even by being 6months late on mist of those i'm even faster to pick up on them than most fashionable people i know and i still feel like actual fashion - mostly in hairstyling - is going at a glacial pace) and, i won't have to get off the platform... I just have to stop spe up to ten hours each day on TH-cam... (Surprisingly it's harder than quitting porn, and doing that made me realize how much sexuality is shoved down our throats everyday, what a fun time for those ace people i assume)
tiktok, youtube shorts, reels... it's all the same in the end. Especially since so much stuff gets reposted as well on these platforms, I feel like many people have at least 1 platform they're having trouble stepping away from
i found all of the anguish i stumble across this platform where everyone has a strong opinion on absolutly everything is kinda getting to me and i'm more unhappy than necessary. Also i want to juggle between so many things and interests so i might as well take a step back and whenever i dont drwn myself in struggling causes i close myself into a realm of aspirations i won't achieve or can't quite achieve now
Good 👍
I just leave whatsapp and my camera off my screentime count, because i use them to comunicate daily with loved ones and to take some pics
Where is she from ?
The netherlands
Reducing my screentime is hard because i have ADHD and i need the dopamine 😭
Small steps!! Don’t be too hard on yourself, everyone is different and what works for me may not work for you and that’s fine 🫶🏻
me being 10-12h a day on my phone. 😂
