DIGITAL WELLNESS WITH A HUMAN SOUL
We believe there is a more HUMAN way to overcome the current overwhelming
technology and digital dependency.
We want to solve the problem by creating beautifully crafted and digital-free solutions
(no more apps) that help us disconnect from our devices.
Our solutions are reminders that real connections start the moment we put our
smartphones away and we proudly celebrate that.
Digital wellness is not an app but an entire LIFESTYLE CHANGE. It’s about building
positive routines that enhance our human condition, not downgrade them. At Bagby,
our MISSION is to decrease people's screen time while increasing their HUMAN time.

About Bagby

Usually I don’t like to start by talking about such a negative event. We cannot avoid how COVID has
changed the world since it began in March of 2020. I like to say that instead of COVID changing the
world, it accelerated what was already happening, waiting to burst through the surface.
In the last 12 months we have faced incredible challenges, especially when it comes to human
relationships, the workspace and how we do business. I feel the world has changed from what was
supposed to happen in 10 years, to barely 2 years. This has all translated into higher levels of stress
but also resilience, adaptation and success. I believe humanity has become stronger.
Amid all this new order and seeing to the end of this tunnel that is the COVID pandemic, I think
2022 is the year to celebrate what we have achieved. We must go back to hugging our loved ones,
having some fun, reconnecting and understanding that face-to-face communication is still the best
way to connect with each other.
This is the reason why we wanted to take a different approach to this year’s report and add a FUN
element to it. We have called this new element TechSatire. #TechSatire is a parody of the everyday
use of technology in our modern society. To poke fun at people’s behaviors and technology in
general, we’ve created a series of posts that are fun and easy-to-consume. These pieces of
entertainment showcase realistic and socially acceptable situations, which, in reality, are often quite
paradoxical. Perhaps, tech is not as simple and flawless as how it is sold to us. ⁠I hope you’ll laugh
along with us and enjoy!
Thank you again for supporting our cause.
Stay human, stay safe.
FOUNDER'S LETTER
Juan Sánchez Bonet
Co-Founder & CEO

First launched in 2019, this is the third edition of the world's first collaborative paper
with a focus on Digital Wellness.
The format is very easy to digest as it brings personal perspectives from top leaders
and pioneers in the industry. We carefully selected a diverse and enriching group of
people from tech engineers, mindfulness teachers, entrepreneurs to therapists,
artists, writers, and retreat owners, and asked them to share some tips and inspire the
community. Along with their recommendations, this year we launched our
#TechSatire series; a parody of the everyday use of technology in our modern society.
These pieces of entertainment showcase realistic and socially acceptable situations,
which, in reality, are often quite paradoxical. Perhaps, then, tech is not as simple and
flawless as how it was sold to us.⁠
This collaborative paper aims to have a positive impact on people like us who went
through a wake-up call and are trying to make a change in the ultra-connected
society we live in by joining forces with thoughtful leaders in the community.

collaboration

What digital-free item/tool do you
still use?
What is the most paradoxical situation you’ve
experienced with technology?
People getting together at a conference that's in-
person for the first time in 3 years . . . and everyone
being on their phones!
Who in your life faces the most
challenges with technology?
I think everyone faces challenges with technology, just in
different ways.
How do you build human connection without
technology?
Q4
I try to prioritize opportunities for in-person interactions, and
when I'm with people I put away my phone.
What is your favorite unplugged activity?
Playing music with friends.
.
Share your forward-thinking vision of the
industry. Where will it be in 5 years?
There will be a growing divide between those who prefer
interacting digitally (likely in the metaverse and augmented
reality) and those who prefer to live their lives off their screens.
Also, AI and deep fakes are going to make it increasingly difficult
for society to reach consensus on what is true, with potentially
terrifying results.

"Balancing Tech Time Will
Make You Happier."
Not too long ago I was in line next to a family at the African
American Museum in Washington, D.C. As we were about to enter
the museum the dad announced to his wife and 3 kids "We're not
going to use any technology while in the museum, just our phones."
Then the mom replied "And our Fitbits to track our steps."
Until recently it was my mom, and it always put a smile on my
face!
I facilitate numerous retreats for organizations and when we
have experiential activities there is an agreement that this time is
device free.
Inspiration and motivation come from taking daily walks and
enjoying the beauty that surrounds me. Whether it's nature or
architecture the experience is heightened without a device.
In 5 years I believe certain technological companies will be more
mindful of the human experience and what our brains need in the
way of human connection. We will be more balanced in our
understanding of the importance of face-to-face interactions,
without technological usage, and when technology adds real
value.
I continue to use books for all my research, learning, and

"Commit to enjoying meals without having devices
present. Utilize this time to connect with people through
conversation of shared interests, goals and struggles. It's
easy to consistently rely on a device, tv or phone if a
conversation gets awkward, however these are the
moments that we most connect to ourselves and each
other. Allow mealtime to be a time of exploration."

Walks with my family; to school, dog park, just a ramble. We talk

The major change I think will be the lack of desire to adopt every

I think more and more people are realizing that too much screen

health. Popular platforms have lost the trust of their users in
recent months. People want transparency and privacy. I'm
hopeful this will help new, more ethical businesses that put
human well-being before anything else. I think some big data
companies are going to have a hard time in the next few years.

Oh goodness! That's a hard one. My husband is on his phone
most (and classifies almost everything as "work") but I can see
how it affects our three teenagers socially, emotionally,
relationally, physically... even spiritually!
When we disconnect with all the people we "like" it's easier to
connect with those we love! Family, friends, and God too.
I love walking, hands-free. When I don't spend my time scrolling
it's easier to do some strolling.
II believe that people are so connect today that we are actually
disconnected from what matters most (and who matters most). I
like to think that a revival of sorts is coming, when people will
actively buck the tech-system and hop offline. Perhaps "old
school" will look like flip phones, or no phones!

(if you want to stay upright).
I leave my phone at the office and walk to get my lunch. A few
minutes of tech-free bliss!
Tech is social, so we'll still have problems, maybe just with new
apps. But the solutions are also timeless - focus, connection,
and time in nature. Many more will be bought in to the solutions -
to a great net benefit.
My wristwatch is "digital but dumb" - I know I wont be
distracted when I check the time.

Georgie Powell " Digital wellbeing is about using
technology intentionally to improve,
not detract, from our lives.."
When people check the weather on their phone, rather than
looking out of the window.
Challenges are hard to define and take many forms. Whilst the
older generations in my life have more of a 'challenge' putting
their device down (they are the chief phubbers), there are
younger people in my life who are more emotionally influenced by
the content they see, a very different type of challenge. I think we
are all challenged by technology in one way or another.
Human connections start with ourselves. Having the space to
rest, to be bored, to connect with nature is so important. For
connecting with others, I make a conscious effort to look
everyone I pass in the eye and say hello.
So many! Currently gardening. I also love reading to my girls.
From a work perspective, technology will evolve to better keep
up with a work landscape which is remote, asynchronous and
where the ability to reliably and consistently do focused, deep
work is a differentiating skillset.
A watch.

"As humans, we are hardwired
for connection."
People swiping through Tinder while sitting in front of their
Tinder Date.
Everyone around me throughout society. Including me.
Organizing a pasta masterclass afternoon with friends.
Staring out of the window for no other reason than just that.
I dream of a society that will know how to use digital devices
mindfully - and knows how to be human in a digital world.
Analog alarm clock, notebook, bullet journal, radio.

"After finishing work, shut down your laptop completely.
That will help your brain to switch off more easily."

Leigh- Chantelle "More conscious choices improve
the way we communicate, what we
prioritise, and where we spend our
time, energy, and money."
People spending time online to "connect" with people but are
too overwhelmed with being online that they have no time to
speak to people or see people in real life.
Different people have different challenges. Overall, people who
have less technology self-efficacy will always believe they
cannot adapt to new technologies and updates.
I use audio messages a lot (instead of texts) and chat on the
phone with people. I also participate in a lot of outdoor activities
and encourage friends to join me for catching up.
(Ocean) swimming, yoga, Pilates, bush walks, beach walks,
reading non-fiction books, calligraphy and lettering, deep
conversations.
In a positive and ethical world, in five years' time technology
companies will be tethered, demonopolized, and taxed properly;
people will have more ownership of their data and transparency
towards how it is used; people and companies will see the
benefits of digital wellness and use technology as tools if and
when required. Also, I would prefer less techno solutionism and
fewer people who blindly follow horrible technology creators and
their opinions.
Physical calendars and planners, books, notebooks, pens and
calligraphy pens. I also have a non-ticking analog alarm and
write down directions.

"We now spend more time in the
digital world than in the real one."
Using another app to track screen time and losing sight of the
main goal: improving our wellbeing and the time we spend away
from technology.
My wife but I do, too.
I try not to share memes and stories on Whatsapp groups. If you
want to know what happened yesterday, you need to come out
to the real world and get involved.
Running in Raleigh's greenways and playing soccer until my left
knee allow me to do so.
I feel the Metaverse will increase the time we spend in the digital
world, especially due to the fact that the experience will be much
more immersive (all 5 senses).
Also, how we link digital wellness to productivity will accelerate
the adoption of digital wellness in the workspace and the creation
of new job roles that will become more necessary than ever
before.
