The Framework
The Four Pillars of the 1111 Formula
Four simple rules that transform your relationship with technology
No Mobile use
1
One Hour After Waking
No Mobile Use
The first hour of the day is crucial for setting a healthy mental tone. Using a mobile phone immediately after waking floods the brain with notifications, stress-inducing news, and distractions.
Benefits:
- Improves morning focus and clarity
- Reduces anxiety from immediate exposure to notifications
- Allows time for mindfulness, exercise, or family connection
No Mobile use
1
One Hour Before Sleeping
No Mobile Use
Mobile phone use before sleep disrupts the body's natural sleep cycle due to blue light exposure and mental stimulation. This rule ensures the mind is calm and prepared for rest.
Benefits:
- Improves sleep quality and duration
- Reduces eye strain and mental fatigue
- Encourages evening rituals like reading, journaling, or family time
Present In The Moment
1
No Mobile Use During Any Meal
Present in the Moment
Mealtimes should be moments of nourishment, both physical and emotional. Using phones during meals detracts from family bonding, leads to overeating, and instills poor digital habits in children.
Benefits:
- Encourages mindful eating and healthier digestion
- Strengthens family and social relationships
- Teaches children discipline and respect for shared time
Family Digital Fasting Day
1
One Full Day Each Week
Family Digital Fasting Day
A dedicated tech-free day each week, ideally Sunday, to encourage family interaction, outdoor activities, and a reset from digital dependency.
Benefits:
- Restores deep family bonds through shared experiences
- Breaks the cycle of constant connectivity
- Creates space for hobbies, nature, and creativity
