Have you ever caught yourself checking your smartphone while you're behind the wheel - even though you know it's dangerous? Does your text alert chime make you interrupt a conversation with a person sitting right in front of you? Our guest today, Dr. Nancy Colier, says that the compulsion to constantly check our devices plays on primal instincts and even lifelong meditators and people who've never suffered from addiction issues now find themselves caught in the subtle trap of these miraculous tools we've created. Nancy is a psychotherapist, interfaith minister, author, and veteran meditator. She is the author ofInviting a Monkey to Tea; Discovering Lasting Contentment and her newest book, The Power of Off: The Mindful Way to Stay Sane in a Virtual World. Nancy is also a regular contributor to Psychology Today and The Huffington Post. Visit www.nancycolier.com Donate to the America Meditating Radio Show at www.paypal.me/AmericaMeditating.

Nancy Collier joins me this week on the podcast to discuss her book, The Power of Off: The Mindful Way to Stay Sane in a Virtual World. She looks at the addictive side of technology, and how it is capable of removing us from our human relationships. Nancy believes we humans are giving up our capacity to think for ourselves, and are forfeiting the precious gaps between stimuli when our minds used to be free to run wild. Nancy shares her personal intention to make technology a tool at her disposal instead of a consumption engine which eats away at the moments in her life. I know this idea will resonate with many of you who feel, as Nancy says, Twired, tired and wired. Being able to bring all of who we are to work our and our life, requires us to unplug and turn off our devices at times, in order to think, feel, and re-engage with ourselves and each other.   Key Takeaways: [2:25] What prompted Nancy to write The Power of Off? [7:54] Technology has discouraged us from realizing our brilliance. [13:32] We are using life to build our brand. [16:35] How to use technology, not have it use you. [20:51] Why it’s important to practice mindfulness. [26:16] Overcoming the idea that you have to be doing something every minute. [30:44] Is technology feeding the well-being you desire? [36:04] The pseudo-intimacy created by texts.   Resources: Nancy Collier Mike Robbins Website Mike Robbins Podcast Mike Robbins on Facebook Mike Robbins on Twitter

One of the most important issues facing nearly everyone in the Western world is the onset of technology addiction. It's effecting all of us.
