Listen "The impact of technological overload on mental health"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, amii Chair
Dave Middleton focuses on how our mental health is affected by overuse of
technology in a conversation with Dr Phil Hopley, Managing Director of
Cognacity - a Harley Street clinic that provides psychological and psychiatric
services to individuals and organisations.
Phil explains that in recent years, he has seen a significant rise in
negative mental health, particularly among teenagers and young people, which
coincides with the increasing influence of social media on our lives. He
discusses mindfulness techniques to switch off from the technology we use every
day in our working and personal lives.
Phil also advises on how to avoid burnout and optimise human performance
and productivity in the workplace, drawing on his experience working with the
McLaren Formula One team to help them consistently reach peak performance
without compromising their mental health away from the sport.
