Yoga for Healthy Phone Use

Yoga for Healthy Phone Use is a yoga routine created by Dasha Ilina within the framework of Center for Technological Pain, a mock company that provides DIY solutions to health problems that come from technology. This routine is at once a relaxation tool - a way to meditate and exercise while keeping up with recent updates from your friends via your phone - and a way to ridicule our obsessive media consumption by inserting our phones into one of the most solitary activities. Throughout this 7-minute video, the viewer gets to learn three different yoga positions designed specifically to ensure stress-free phone use. At the same time as mocking our everyday addictive behavior, this routine actually forces the person performing it to reflect on that behavior while making the overall browsing experience a lot more pleasant.
