Publisher's Summary
Learn how to switch off and find calm - from the New York Times bestselling author of A World Without Email
Do you find yourself endlessly scrolling through social media or the news while your anxiety rises? Are you feeling frazzled after a long day of endless video calls?
In this timely audiobook, professor Cal Newport shows us how to pair back digital distractions and live a more meaningful life with less technology.
By following a 'digital declutter' process, you'll learn to:
- Rethink your relationship with social media
- Prioritize 'high bandwidth' conversations over low quality text chains
- Rediscover the pleasures of the offline world
Take back control from your devices and find calm amongst the chaos with Digital Minimalism.

Great story-telling, examples, actionable advice
I've read Deep Work by Cal and got into Digital Minimalism before finding this audiobook. The listen further helped me in my journey to dive deeper into digital minimalism. The Walden example chapter was my favorite as I'd been reading Walden before this - the ultimate minimalist's handbook. Cal has a good way of explaining the need for deep work and digital minimalism and offers actionable advice as well. If you're already sold on the idea of digital minimalism, you can skip the first few chapters. It'll be worth listening to this book multiple times based on where you are on your journey.
I had taken a minimalist approach to Facebook and Instagram and deleted the apps after I had read Deep Work (in print). And now, after listening to Digital Minimalism, I've completely deleted both my social accounts - and feel absolute freedom :)

Great book worth referring multiple times
A very helpful guide in this attention grabbing digital world. This book is not anti technology but it emphasis on learning a quality life and having our own control over our digital life. We are supposed to live as per our own values and not on the imposed ones of others. Importance of Solitude and other good practices to manage digital life are very well explained. Worth referring multiple times.

Opened me up to Digital Minimalism
I used to have a misconception about Digital Minimalism and what it means. Not anymore. This book brought up good examples and techniques to employ technology instead of letting technology employ me.

reading worth while
An impressive work. Author not only introduces the concept of digital minimalism, he also provides with a well chalked out roadmap to implement for those who wish and those who need a push towards this path.

There was absolutely nothing of value in this for me! At times it was boring, at times it stretched point sfor tooo damn long, and all of the time it was just blah!

My first audiobook
This was my first ever audiobook, and I quite enjoyed it. Definitely a great read for anyone looking to improve their relationship with technology and social media. It’s quite interesting, especially the snippets of how technology and social media developed to where they are today - like the origin of the “like” button on facebook - and the aspects of how these companies tap into the psychology of consumers. It contains a lot of suggestions and actionable steps, and I’m definitely looking forward to implementing some aspects of this book going forward.
The introduction is narrated by the author himself (which was a nice touch) and the main narrator of the rest of the book is also very solid.

Everyone staring at a screen needs to hear this
if you are stuck in staring at a screen for major part of a day, you need to hear this.
Steps described in this book might take time but will be really helpful in claiming the space in long run
