001[music] Hi, this is CC Ducet with Massachusetts for safe technology. [music] Have you heard about off February? Just like dry January where people give up alcohol to kind of clean up their act after [music] the holidays, there is a worldwide movement now called off February to give people the opportunity [music] to rethink how they spend their time. off. February invites us to [music] remove social media from our mobile devices for the month of February or even [music] try it for a day. And if you need to get online, go to your hardwired computer and access what you need from there. But take your life back. Get outside and do something fun [music] like snow showing in this wonderful winter. All right, [music] let's head into the cable station here, WACAV in Ashlin, Massachusetts. We're so
002grateful that we have this community resource to [music] share information with you. And we're going to go inside and show you a little bit about the features [music] in our wonderful studio. I am so grateful to Wacka for bringing my TechSafe program here to Ashlin. We had recorded [music] in Worcester for 62 episodes and now we have episode 63 here in Ashland. So, please come on in and join us and we're going to show [music] you what some of the features are here. You can see my TechSafe program [music] on Comcast channel 8 here in Ashland or Verizon channel 39. Our first episode of TechSafe [music] is with Dr. Donna Aught and the next one will be with Dr. Alexia Mcnite and we'll be teaching you the wireless [music] radiation risks and what we can
003do about them. But for today, let's [music] talk more about what we're doing with Off February, and we're going to show you a video that [music] friends around the world have put together for you. Thank you. >> Off February. [music] Delete your social media apps for 28 days. It's been 15 [music] years that our lives have been colonized by social media. They were meant to connect us, but they've ended up absorbing our [music] time and attention and have made us feel worse. We're aware of this and yet when we try to get out of them alone, we generally fail. But what would happen if we all tried at the same time? Join the off February challenge. Erase social media apps from your [music] smartphone during the 28 days of February. Regain your time and [music]
004attention. Do you know the good news? Almost any alternative to the time you spend on social media will have a more positive impact on your well-being. Life is too [music] rich to fit in a screen. Start enjoying it again. Join the off February [music] challenge.
