Intro: Your phone, your laptop, your TV — they all want your attention. But your body and brain? They need rest.

This RB100 Challenge asks you to spend 100 cumulative hours away from screens in the evening. It’s a powerful reset for your nervous system, recovery, and focus.


Why Go Screen-Free?

  • Reduces blue light exposure before bed (supports melatonin production)
  • Improves sleep quality and quantity
  • Frees up time for reflection, recovery, connection, and learning
  • Lowers digital fatigue and improves mental health

How to Structure It

  • Start with 1 hour per evening (e.g. 8–9 PM)
  • No phones, laptops, TVs, tablets — ideally even smartwatches
  • Replace screens with:
    • Journaling, breathwork, or meditation
    • Reading a book
    • Evening walk or stretch
    • Cooking, puzzles, conversation, music

100 Hour Tracker Example

  • 7 nights/week × 1.5 hours = 10.5 hrs/week
  • You’ll hit 100 hours in under 10 weeks — or faster if you go longer

Tips for Success

  • Set a recurring screen-off timer
  • Keep screens out of the bedroom
  • Tell others about your challenge for accountability
  • Use airplane mode or grayscale mode to reduce temptation
