We recommend this App for clients at our clinic looking to reduce their screen time. Excessive screen time is an everyday problem that affects most people. In order for us to be in a relaxed state and to support recovery and healing from mental illness, it is important to control the amount of stimulation and information that our brain receives. Research shows that it is mainly the content accessed on phones rather than light stimulation that causes the majority of the problems for sleep and anxiety.The BePresent app is a simple to use App that helps reduce phone addiction by blocking distracting apps and setting time limits. All of this occurs in a gamified, reward based, positive reinforcement structure. There is also the added option for accountability partners.
