Digital Detox In SVG

New research shows that nearly half of us feel so tied down by technology we can't let an email or text pass us by, and have to respond to it. The constant need to keep checking messages and to monitor different websites, can lead you to distraction. It's hard to just sit and focus on one thing.

Our productiveness and stress levels naturally are affected. Problems in relationships also occur when the person you are with is left feeling like they don't have your full attention. Allowing yourself to switch off will help to calm your mind and to fully enjoy the present moment you are in.

In January 2012 the first branded 'digital detox' holiday comes to St. Vincent and the Grenadines (SVG). Guests will be asked to 'de-tech' and hand over their mobile phones and gadgets surrendering themselves to fully enjoying their technology free break.

The St Vincent & the Grenadines Tourism Authority (SVGTA) is also bringing some key media across to experience a de-tech holiday for themselves, they will have life coaching each day to help them switch off and contemplate life, enjoy peaceful meditation walks through Botanical Gardens, sail around the deserted Tobago Cays and simply have time to relax. Stay tuned for the coverage that will follow.
