Description
Essential skills and strategies for managing your gameplay and creating a well-balanced life.
Do you spend hours on end playing video games? Do marathon gaming sessions cause you to lose much-needed sleep? Have your grades suffered as a result of neglecting schoolwork in favour of more game time? Has your physical health declined due to extended periods of inactivity? Have you tried unsuccessfully to limit the time you spend playing? Gaming can be a fun, challenging, and rewarding activity, but when it begins to interfere with other essential aspects of life, it might be time to set some limits.
The Gaming Overload Workbook will help you explore your use of video games in a thoughtful, nonjudgmental way. This isn't a workbook for giving up on gaming. This is a guide to help you set your own limits on screen time, and apply your interest and enthusiasm for gaming to a wider variety of activities, like connecting with friends and family, excelling in school or sports, and just spending more time outdoors.
If you're ready for some healthy balance between gaming, school, family, physical activity, and social relationships, this book will provide the key to winning at the game of life!

"The Gaming Overload Workbook will be a treasured resource for teens, their parents, and their teachers. Randy Kulman provides a unique way to help evaluate the impact of screen time and video games on teen behaviour, problem-solving, time management, learning, and socialisation. Numerous activities invite teens to engage in self-analysis of their screen-time behaviour, encouraging them to consider how video play impacts them. Highly practical and exceptional." – Harvey C. Parker, PhD, clinical psychologist and author.
