Small attempts to reduce screen time

For the past few days, I've been thinking about how much time I was wasting doomscrolling. So yesterday, I made a conscious decision to cut down my screen time.

I picked up a book to read, but after a while, my hands instinctively reached for my phone. That's when I thought, why not do something creative instead? So, I decided to try embroidery.

At first, it was difficult to stay focused, but gradually I got completely immersed in it. About 1.5–2 hours later, I finished this piece.

More than the embroidery itself, I'm proud that I stayed away from my phone for those two hours. It felt refreshing to create something with my own hands instead of endlessly scrolling.

Let me know what you think of it. ❤️

NB:- I know this is not something great, but it has been almost 10 years since I tried embroidery.
