Course description

Do you ever feel lost without your smartphone? Does it make you anxious? How can you use it in a healthy way, so it doesn’t take control of your life and behavior?

Mobile phones have taken over our lives. We all know how much we rely on them, but there’s another side to this coin. Smartphone addiction is slowly becoming a modern-day epidemic. Since you’re here, you’re probably wondering if you’re using yours more often and for longer than you actually need.

Additionally, we offer a test to help you determine whether, and to what extent, you might be addicted to your smartphone.

At the end of this course, you’ll be able to download a summary in a convenient PDF format.

We invite you to join us!
