Punjab Village Holds 'Idle Sitting' Contest to Promote Digital Detox Awareness

Gholia Khurd village in Moga, Punjab, hosted an 'Idle Sitting' contest to raise awareness about digital overload. Fifty-five participants sat in one spot for up to 31 hours, restricted from using phones, getting up, sleeping, or using the washroom, though food and water were permitted. Experts highlight the necessity of digital detoxes for minimizing distractions, maximizing productivity, and improving mental well-being by reducing exposure to negative online content and constant interruptions.
