New book — 14 August
7 steps to living more & scrolling less
Seven steps back to your own attention. A book about living more and scrolling less — in a daily life where the screen is always within reach.
About the book
Magnus Fridh helps people reduce their screen time and do a digital detox — through retreats, talks and now the book Digitalt andrum, which offers concrete tools against phone dependency.
The book is published on 14 August 2026 by The Book Affair and can be pre-ordered now. The signed edition is printed in a limited run.
I wrote this book because I needed it myself. It isn't about putting the phone away forever — it's about getting back the small gaps where life actually happens.

The books belong together: the same calm voice, the same question about how to be present in your own life.
Through three themes — Everyday Life, Nature and Meditation — Magnus Fridh reflects on places where stillness and recovery can be found. One person spends time in a green space in the city, another listens to the shipping forecast before sleep, a third learns to meditate and to be more present in the simple tasks of the day.
We don't really need to make any great changes, but the ones we do make can have an unexpectedly large effect.
Finding calm in moments of stress – a child who is ill, work that spills over, something that has happened in the family – gives us the strength to take care of ourselves and of each other. Being able to quiet the chattering monkey in the head and pause the stream of thoughts; being here and now, gives us calm and much-needed rest.
Viloläge shows how to go about it. Practices and personal texts alternate with explanatory, deeper chapters.
With a warm mix of storytelling, research and practical exercises, Magnus shows how we can handle stress, find focus and create calm even in a fast, digital working life.
He shares tools from meditation, nervous system regulation, breathwork, reflective exercises and digital distance – all presented in a simple, accessible way that works straight away in everyday life.
The talks suit a kickoff, a leadership day, a conference, or as an inspiring start to the work towards a more sustainable working life.
