This therapy will provide relief from screen fatigue

A digital detox doesn't always mean turning off your phone or deleting apps. Sometimes it's just a few minutes of scent-filled respite and quiet, such as with the warmth of lavender, freshness of peppermint and peace of sandalwood. Because peace is not a luxury, but everyone's need. Connect with the smells of nature and keep reminding yourself that rest is as important as work.
