You have to deliberately make time for, and schedule, other activities away from your machine. Otherwise your idle time on the machine will just be spent on similar cheap thrills that are either glorified social media or feeds. I walk, read books, exercise, cook, and spend social time with others. If I'm not exhausted I'll also practice my instrument and write. Eventually you won't have to think about it too much just by avoiding excess screen-time, but until such a point, owing to habit and conditioning, one feels very lost going without.
