Our attention is fragmented by the digital world, but we don’t know how to put it back together.
The good news? It’s not your fault. This capture of our attention was created by design—intentionally by many, carelessly by most. These new paradigms of design have worked so well, in fact, that living predominantly through a screen is now considered normal. But…does it feel normal?
What’s Mindful by Design?
We are a newsletter and design studio liberating attention for what matters most. Our mission is to close the wisdom gap between technology and well-being. Daunting? Yes. Necessary? More than ever.
We reveal how and why our digital world fragments your attention, then teach you how to reclaim it—allowing the power of design (and mindfulness!) to guide it toward what you value most.
Mindfulness: The art of being present with your experience, without getting hijacked by it.
Who You Are & Why You’re Here
You're a frazzled professional facing a modern paradox: Your need for focused presence has never been greater, yet maintaining it has never been harder—threatening not just your professional success, but personal well-being.
We’ll help you develop something we like to call Attentional Autonomy by focusing on:
A philosophy of technology use that honors our humanity
Mindfully designing your digital environment to support well-being
Understanding and redirecting psychological triggers through behavioral design
Attentional Autonomy: Your birthright in the digital era—choosing where your attention goes, rather than having it chosen for you.
