What will happen in your session?

We’ll explore journaling as a way to maintain an online presence while reserving space to think privately, discuss publicly, safeguard your goods and process information overload. Why journaling? Because handwritten notes can be a creative way to learn the basics of "online work-life balance” and privacy hygiene. (And because it’s fun.)

Let’s talk about which parts of your everyday experience are best suited for online consumption, and what to keep for yourself. Bring your own digital or physical journal, or drop by and take a fresh one home for free!

What is the goal or outcome of your session?

Where are you storing your memories: online, offline, or both? Are all of your passwords and private info stored digitally, or do you keep a physical file? What information is safe to store in the Cloud, on Facebook, or in your private notes? How do you take a break from the internet, when the internet is where you work and live?

Web-weary adventurers should come out of this session with a clear sense of where their most valuable data is safest, be that online or in the real world. They’ll also leave with a creative outlet and new strategies for aligning and de-stressing your life.

If your session requires additional materials or electronic equipment, please outline your needs.

A small screen with an HDMI hookup would be nice just in case, but it isn't essential. :)

Hello @bunnybooboo! The title is still good, but I have a few changes to the second paragraph of the description:

Where are you storing your memories: online, offline, or both? Are all of your passwords and private info stored digitally, or do you keep a physical file? What information is safe to store in the Cloud, on Facebook, or in your private notes? How do you take a break from the internet, when the internet is where you work and live?

Take a break from the intensity of Mozzing to relax with a good book...that you can write yourself. While we're at it, let's learn about where our data is safest, be that online or in the real world.

Thanks!

Hmm I'm a little confused here. What will happen in your session is usually what we grab as the decription, and in this case it very descriptive. I've added the edited outcomes too. Schedule updated with this new info. Let's take a later look at how this shows in the app during the week. I'll provide you with a link to be able to directly edit.

Hey @bunnybooboo, if the edits don't make sense or the copy is too long feel free to remove or revert to original. Also happy to revise, if need be.
