laura FeaTonby, 49, is single and lives in Cheshire with her daughters Konnie, 12, and Darcy, 14. she owns a travel company. LaURa says: I often tell myself I don’t have time to go to a yoga class five minutes from home, yet looking at the hours I spend on Facebook I have all the time in the world.

although I communicate with clients through Facebook Messenger for work, I get sidetracked reading people’s comments and posts that pop up on my Facebook page.

Before I know it, 20 minutes have vanished.

I’m cross with myself about that, especially as my t i me i s now so squeezed between work, my girls and my parents, who are both in their 80s.

My mum is very poorly with alzheimer’s and is currently in hospital, so I spend a lot of time on my phone making calls to Dad, plus researching and contacting hospitals, social workers and carers on their behalf.

Those elements of my phone usage, and work activity, are essential.

But the Moment app has highlighted that as well as spending too much time on Facebook, I’m a devil for picking up my phone when I wake in the dead of night.

Typically I wake up at 4am and instead of trying to nod off again, some nights I’m on my phone for 20 minutes replying to messages I didn’t get around to the day before.

I nag my daughters for spending too much time on their phones but I’m not exactly setting a good example, am I?

Now, I’m determined to reduce my phone use and get to that yoga class.
