I can't help you with psychological front, nevertheless I do agree over consumption of media can numb your brain. Especially with so much content being released per second, no one can assure the quality of each and every video, nor time or effort to filter the chaff from the cream.

Getting off the grid is not hard. Myself have no constant connection at home. Only way I get online is to walk to public library, and surf on cellphone. Like right now typing this post.

Being disconnected, then, forces you to find activities to treat your brain from boredom. Myself I like to create stuff, such as my own Magic cards and sets, coding simple games (and modding) and web projects (including card creator site to visualize and organize my card ideas), and writing (short stories, but starting on novels).

I suggest for everyone to also pick up writing -- anything you're inclined. Whether stories, recipes, poems, blogs, manuals, plays, whatever. Whether it's on your free time, or whenever an idea emerges. Publishing is optional. Just get your thoughts and ideas in writing.
