ABOUT 7 DAYS OFFLINE

A SMALL PAUSE. A BIGGER QUESTION.

What happens when we stop letting the feed decide where our attention goes?

7 Days Offline is an independent awareness project inviting people to step away from social media feeds for one week each year—from March 1 to March 7.

OUR APPROACH

NOT ANTI-TECH. PRO-ATTENTION.

This is not about rejecting technology, deleting every account or switching off your whole phone.

The idea is simpler: pause algorithmic feeds, short-form video, posting and constant checking—while keeping direct communication and the practical tools you genuinely need.

WHY SEVEN DAYS?

LONG ENOUGH TO NOTICE. SHORT ENOUGH TO BEGIN.

One day can pass without changing much. A permanent digital detox can feel unrealistic.

Seven days offers a manageable starting point to explore your habits and consider what you want to change.

ONE WEEK. ONE SHARED RESET.

TAKE PART IN YOUR OWN WAY.

7 Days Offline happens every year from March 1–7. Participation is free, voluntary and open to everyone.

There are no scores, streaks or perfect weeks to complete. You can prepare in a way that fits your life and keep the tools you genuinely rely on.

WHAT WE HOPE YOU NOTICE

MORE LIFE. LESS FEED.

During the week, you may begin to notice:

  • —when and why you reach for a feed
  • —what becomes easier when the checking stops
  • —which people, places and activities regain your attention
  • —which apps and habits still deserve a place in your life

The goal is not to disappear from the digital world. It is to return with more intention.

IMPORTANT TO KNOW
AN AWARENESS PROJECT, NOT A TREATMENT.

7 Days Offline provides general information, encouragement and practical ideas for changing social media habits.

It is not a medical, mental health, therapeutic or emergency service. If social media is seriously affecting your wellbeing, relationships or daily life, consider speaking with a qualified professional.
