New research by the University of East Anglia found millennials are becoming desperate to digitally disconnect, but are afraid of missing out if they do.

A study of people aged between 21 and 35 looked at how things like taking digital detox holidays can lead to a better work- life balance.

Participants interviewed for the study recognised the overuse of smartphones in their daily lives and the value of digital-free travel as an effective way of achieving improved digital health.
