The Sounds We Cannot Hear
Read on Substack →I had never really considered that the songs birds hear, and the way they experience those songs, might be so very different from what we hear and experience.
Train like a Digital Detox Athlete

Don’t wait for a tipping point
Many people wait for the moment that forces a change. It rarely happens. You can start today with small incremental steps. -
Find your off switch
When was the last time you felt able to really switch off? Recovery is essential to performance. -
Follow a programme
Focus and attention are trainable – the future isn’t simply about becoming more productive. It’s about protecting your capacity to think, focus and recover.

Thank you to Colin Corby for a brilliant webinar to our clients on Digital Distraction and productivity. […] Colin showed us all how we can get another 30 minutes a day with simple changes, resulting in winning back our most valuable resource.

Colin Corby brought such practical wisdom and warmth to Empowered Conversations. His missage—that technology is a tool, not a master—is desperately needed in our digital age. He reminded us that small habits can make a big difference and that the most important connection is the one we have with ourselves and each other.

News01/08/26The Digital Detox Guide: Why We Shouldn’t Make Everything Easier
Are we gradually outsourcing our energy, attention and capability to technology?
That is the question explored in the August 2026 edition of The Digital Detox Guide, the free monthly digital wellbeing resource from technology wellbeing expert, keynote speaker and coach Colin Corby.

The August edition explores the relationship between energy, capability and personal growth.
