Sometimes the best place to disconnect from the world is as simple as a roadside motel and nothing beats WildFlower Inn providing the perfect space. With no fancy amenities and just the basic ones, it is the perfect way to give yourself the much-needed digital detox. Motel rooms are not the most glamorous and that is the reason why they have such a vibe to them. There is a whole process on how to go about a digital detox. You do not need to be very hard on yourself as we all have an unhealthy addiction to the phone. It is wise to start small and then proceed towards the bigger step. As much as we are addicted to the phone and want to get rid of it. The times are such that one just cannot. We rely on our phones for the littlest of things and have the phone to take out of any problem. So it is advised to do a digital detox and only one place and keep your loved ones updated with the location before going off the grid.

You can start by keeping your phone switched off for a few hours a day. This will help you to get a little hang of it. We will not lie, it will feel a little weird to have nothing to scroll or no replies. But that is what we are fighting against. Next, when you do have the urge to pick the phone up and switch it on, pick up a book instead. If you do not like reading, do something that will keep you distracted from the fact that you are not using your phone. It is always advised to stay in one place when you are on a digital detox. You never know when an emergency situation may arise when you are not someplace safe.

What shall one do during the digital detox at a motel? The motels offer basic amenities, no fancy spas or gyms to take your mind off the phone. Living in a simple environment can help you achieve the goal that you are looking for and not have the phone. It will force you to think about your thoughts deeply and focus on what is ahead. It is important to do this, otherwise the detox will become very easy.

You can also set up no phone zones across the room and leave the phone out of it. This zone can be on the balcony, in order to enjoy nature more and have that much-needed peace of mind. This helps you to unwind and focus on the present. In the hustle and bustle of the world, we have stopped living in the moment and only focus on updating the ones who do not care or reminiscing about the past. Get on this digital detox and feel the other side of the world that is very different from the world that we have on our phones.
