I just got back on the grid.
Over the weekend, I was at Camp Grounded, a four-day digital detox summer camp for adults. I first heard about Camp Grounded in summer 2015 through a friend’s Facebook post (slightly ironic but I guess they knew where to find us!).
In that short video, I learned that Camp Grounded has a few rules: no drugs or alcohol, no digital technology, no work talk, no time, no ages and no real names.
At that point in time, I had been growing my private practice for two years. Without realizing it, my life and my self had become synonymous with my career and my company. I could no longer tell where Laura ended and where Summerfield began. I was excited about the opportunity to disconnect from it all, strip away all the ways I identified myself, and find everything that was still left underneath.
While I did take this time to reconnect with myself, there were also a few surprising nuggets I took with me when I left camp.
