00:00Why can't you stop checking your phone even when you know you have nothing important to check?
00:04Because your brain has learned to expect something new every time you reach for it.
00:08Every notification, message, or interesting video gives your brain a tiny reward.
00:13Your brain starts connecting boredom with checking your phone.
00:16Don't hate your phone.
00:17Break the automatic loop.
00:18Put it away and turn off notifications.
00:21Give yourself a few minutes.
00:22Control the urge.
