My head was so full of digital noise 1 it felt like my brain was about to explode. I had no greater power of concentration than a goldfish and the lifeless stare of a goldfish as well. As a writer, I was ashamed to admit that my love of books had been weakened by a brain that simply could not sit still.

So, at the start of this year I committed to restoring books to the place that they held in my life before the Internet broke my brain.

Again and again, I would gently bring myself back to the page, resisting the urge 7 (reach) for that screen. I took inspiration from Nikki Gemmell, who describes in On Quiet, how investing in a safe to lock away her family's devices for long periods had opened up a space for deep reflection.

I read on the tram, at the park, in bed at night and on lunch breaks.

9 (renew) my love affair with books, I created a sacred space where I pressed pause and found inspiration, knowledge and reflection. In our modern world, reading for the sake of reading is not selfish. It is a powerful and beneficial way to slow down and be 10 .
