From The New York Times Touch the Grass series:

Welcome to the first week of our summer challenge, which encourages you to “touch grass” — or in other words, to put down your phone and reconnect with the real world.

Every week in June, we’re sending you an evidence-based exercise that will encourage you to step away from your screen.

If you’re anything like me, you’re a little worried about the hours you while away indoors and on your phone. More than half of U.S. adults say that they are on their devices too much. We also spend around 90 percent of our time inside.
