Unplug For A Day

Today’s fast paced society can be draining. Being on the go all the time can make you forget the time before you were busy nonstop. With our faces constantly buried in our phones, tablets and laptops both at work and at home, it can distract us from the real world. Even though our phones are great connectors and open up a whole new world to us, sometimes there’s nothing that beats good old face-to-face communication and alone time. In honor of the Day of Unplugging, take a day or even just a few hours to unplug from your electronics and live in the moment.

The weather in Los Angeles is almost always beautiful, so it’s okay to spend tons of time outside. Luckily, at The Glendon, we have an edgeless infinity pool and sundeck. Relaxing in the rooftop area in the pool with your pals is a great way to be social without having to be attached to your phone. If all of your friends are already with you, you don’t need to stare at your phone! Hopefully, this spring and summer will give you plenty of opportunities to enjoy the edgeless infinity pool and sundeck!

One of the best ways to avoid the draw of your phone is to occupy yourself. Strike out into the city for an event! If you’re enjoying yourself and keeping busy, you’ll forget all about your phone and enjoy yourself even further. March is one of the best months to live in Los Angeles. You can experience Old Pasadena Happy Hour Week. All of your favorite happy hour specials extended through a week instead of a few hours. You can distract yourself from your phone while indulging in over drinks and appetizers from your favorite restaurants.

Another great way to remove yourself from the burden of technology is to take yourself outdoors! Spending time outdoors is never a waste of time. There are tons of lovely local parks in Los Angeles to enjoy. Enjoy a day with the animals at the Los Angeles Zoo. Lately, most people at zoos are trying to get the perfect selfie with a lion. However, take this opportunity to really just watch the animals without looking through your phone.

Enjoy your Day of Unplugging with some distractions to keep your mind off of the fact that your phone isn’t in front of your face.
