Were solving the busy problem. The burnout problem. The cant-put-my-phone-down problem. We are always on. 80% of you check your phones as soon as you wake up. 59% of you run through your emails on the weekends and whilst on holiday. Unplugged helps busy workers (like you) unplug from your devices and recharge in nature. Our beautiful digital detox cabins are just an hour from city life, so you dont have to travel far to find what matters. Think your whole team could benefit from a digital detox? Well, we also help companies look after their employees with an annual digital detox as part of their wellbeing benefit programmes. Because free office fruit just doesnt cut the mustard in this tech-obsessed world.
