Your brain wasn't built for this much noise.
If you feel foggy, scattered, overstimulated-or like your best thinking is just out of reach-you're not broken. You're overloaded.
In an era where our attention is constantly hijacked by pings, scrolls, tabs, and multitasking, clarity feels like a luxury. But the truth is: you can restore it. You can reclaim your calm. And you don't need to delete everything or escape to a cabin in the woods to do it.
You need Tech-Free Habits for Focus-a practical, science-backed framework for restoring attention, energy, and peace in a culture that profits from your distraction.
This book is not another productivity hack. It's a nervous system reset. A reintroduction to deep focus. A toolkit for regaining control over how you use your mind.
Written by Dr. Peter Fogarty-PhD in Science, teacher of 20+ years, and author of the bestselling Tech-Free Habits-this second volume in the series dives into the neuroscience of distraction, the emotional cost of digital overstimulation, and the brain's powerful ability to heal.
✅ Why you can't focus anymore (and why it's not your fault)
✅ The hidden cognitive toll of switching tasks, checking phones, and "just a quick scroll"
✅ How dopamine loops are rewiring your brain-and how to break free
✅ 7 daily Tech-Free Habits for Focus that re-train your attention naturally
✅ Simple rituals to calm your mind without needing more willpower
✅ Tools for protecting your "prime thinking hours" from digital leakage
✅ How to build a sustainable focus routine that fits real life (not just ideal mornings)
✅ What to do when you fall off track-without guilt, shame, or giving up
Whether you're struggling to stay present in conversations, procrastinating your most meaningful work, or feeling mentally foggy even after rest, Tech-Free Habits for Focus offers the structure and clarity you've been missing.
Most focus books are written for high-performers with control over their schedules.
This one is different.
It's written for real people in real life-students, parents, professionals, creatives-people with phones, responsibilities, and noisy environments. You won't find rigid rules here. Instead, you'll build a flexible, repeatable rhythm that supports your brain's natural ability to go deep, stay clear, and return to calm.
You'll learn how to create boundaries without shame. How to shift from distraction to depth-without going off-grid. And most importantly, how to make focus feel easy again.
