Navigating the Web with Wisdom
Empowering you to stay safe and balanced in the digital world
Digital wellness and cyber safety involve using technology responsibly and safely. Digital wellness encourages a balanced lifestyle by limiting excessive screen time, supporting mental well-being, and promoting intentional device use. Cyber safety focuses on safeguarding personal data, avoiding digital risks, and staying protected online. By practicing both, we develop smart digital habits and ensure a safer experience in the online world.
Spending long hours in front of screens can tire your eyes and cause discomfort. To ease this, try looking away from your device every 20 minutes and focus on something distant for about 20 seconds. Also, lower screen brightness and consider using blue light filters to help protect your eyes.
Keep your personal info safe by choosing strong, unique passwords and adjusting privacy controls on your apps and devices. Regularly change your passwords and think twice before sharing sensitive details online to avoid risks.
Online bullying can affect anyone and harm emotional well-being. Watch out for mean messages or exclusion from groups, and don’t hesitate to report bad behavior. Reach out to someone you trust if you or someone you know faces cyberbullying.
Taking care of your mental health means balancing your online activities. Step away from screens regularly, limit social media when it feels overwhelming, and spend time doing activities offline to refresh your mind and lower stress.
