“There has been a(n) 1 in technology as our phones have gone from just regular cell phones to smart phones that allow you to multitask all with one device,” said Han, assistant professor at Baylor. “You use your phone now to receive emails, to text and chat and to access social media platforms -- 2 your phone may be your connection to your social life.”

Although they offer many advantages, Han cautions that using your smart devices can be harmful if you use them too much. For example, using your smart phone while driving, or even walking, can cause serious accidents. Also, staring at your screen for too long can be harmful to your 3 .

In addition, if you are using your phone too much in front your children, then they will likely follow your lead and use their own smart devices rather than 6 with you.

“ In the end, the question is how you balance using your phone while not negatively 7 your health.” Han said. “Anything that you are doing to the 8 is no healthy anymore. While it is going to be almost impossible not to use this technology, we have t create a behavior that is healthy.”

To help 9 the time you spend on your phone, Han offered the following tips:
