Reclaim Your Mind

Foreword by Daniel J. Siegel, M.D.

In our ever-connected world, inner peace isn’t about rejecting technology—it’s about having a better relationship with it. You need boundaries, but that doesn’t mean you should feel guilty every time you pull out your phone. Reclaim Your Mind offers a middle way: a balanced, mindful approach to everyday tech.

With relatable anecdotes and short, easy-to-follow exercises in every chapter, Reclaim Your Mind provides seven key strategies to help you use technology wisely. You’ll learn to develop awareness of your tech use, design your digital and physical environments to focus your attention, reject false urgency, and opt in to better tech that fosters authenticity and fun. Backed by scientific research and the author’s own experiences as a lifelong meditator and an influential designer of technologies for well-being, Reclaim Your Mind helps you rekindle a positive relationship with TV, social media, games, news, email, and even AI. With Jay Vidyarthi’s tools and insights, you’ll learn to stand up for your freedom of attention and relish the convenience, connection, and—yes—joy that technology can offer without getting stuck on apps designed to exploit you. You’ll improve your relationship with technology and ultimately, with yourself.
