Hooked on Tech

Hooked on Tech

We have all felt the toll of too much time hunched over a computer or scrolling on our phones. "Body Electric: The Hidden Health Costs of the Digital Age and the New Science to Reclaim Your Well-Being" explains how our devices alter our bodies and brains, undermine our attention, and keep us hooked. Along with warnings about the distracting nature of tech, and eye-opening research about why it is so hard to resist, author Manoush Zomorodi shows us how to break free from screen capture without disconnecting entirely. Aspen Ideas: Health takes place on the Aspen Institute’s wondrous 40-acre campus in the Rocky Mountains from June 22-25, 2026. The three-day event, which has opened the renowned Aspen Ideas Festival since 2014, is where health’s biggest challenges meet its biggest thinkers. #AspenIdeasHealth #AspenIdeas For more information about Aspen Ideas: Health, visit https://www.aspenideas.org/health.
