The People Going ‘Monk Mode’ To Limit Social Media Use

With the proliferation of social media platforms and devices vying for our attention, a growing number of people are looking for ways to help them resist the urge to continually check notifications and scroll through social media feeds.
This has seen a surge in popularity this year of an approach to productivity called “monk mode”. This involves dedicating yourself to a single task with no tech or other distractions.
The term has gone viral on TikTok, where videos marked with the hashtag #monkmode now have more than 77 million views, up from 31 million in May.
