Computer fasting

We've all heard at least once before of the many health benefits of fasting. A few days ago I decided that I needed to take a sabbatical from my computer, despite how intelligent and worldy I think it is, and no matter how connected and important it makes me feel. I had come to the realization that I had given my power to this machine, checking it all too often throughout the day to see if someone had emailed me, if a friend was on skype, who commented on my Facebook photo... Hmmm, as if I was becoming addicted.... almost like many I've heard from who have expressed computer co-dependency.
My intention was to fast for 3 whole days, however like all cleanses I have intended, I stopped early, on day 2. In that short time I feel like I have successfully regained my power... If you are on the computer every day, consider a detox too! and let me know how it goes....
