    Throughout 2014, we have watcheddigital detox challenges <https://www.huffpost.com/entry/what-to-expect-from-your-_0_n_4899237>come
    and go, and read about the manyhealth benefits <https://www.huffpost.com/entry/national-day-of-unplugging-health-reasons-unplug_n_2791658>that
    come along with loosening our ties to technology.

    reach an entirely new level of OMG. With the Christmas holiday looming,
    now is as good a time as any to take one last stab at unplugging for the
    year and experience the benefits that just might convince you to turn
    off your tech more often in 2015.
