In a world where scrolling is second nature and screen time is at an all-time high, “digital detox” is trending across Google searches. For Cory Thompson, a strong community advocate in Fruita CO and Grand Junction CO, unplugging from technology isn’t just a wellness trend—it’s a vital reset button for mental clarity and productivity.
Cory Thompson Fruita has spent years encouraging balance in life, and one of his biggest messages lately has been about reclaiming our attention. With smartphones, notifications, and social media demanding every spare moment, many people have forgotten what it’s like to be present.
Taking a break from screens—whether for a weekend or just one evening—can drastically improve focus, sleep, and emotional well-being. Cory often recommends a “tech-free Sunday” or putting phones away during family meals to reconnect with what truly matters.
In both Grand Junction and Fruita CO, Cory hosts events that emphasize mindfulness, outdoor activity, and human connection. These events reinforce his belief that sometimes the best way to move forward is to disconnect first.
