(SPOT.ph) Journaling this. Stationery that. Gone are the days when our phones have us all in a chokehold. Nowadays, people are really trying their best to get off their gadgets as much as possible. Lots of folks are turning to analog hobbies, which are activities that don't involve any gadget or screen... or electricity, for that matter.

It can be anything and everything that you could reach for instead of your gadgets—from journals, books, notebooks, to even crossword puzzles, sudoku, card games, among others. This can also include knitting, crocheting, and even painting. These easily-accessible activities allow you to disconnect from the chaotic digital world for a bit and break the habit of doomscrolling. Touching grass isn't a meme anymore. It's now becoming a lifestyle.

Having one spot, or in this case, a tote, that can contain all your analog hobbies so you can easily bring them to your weekend solo dates is much-needed. Not to mention the other essentials like stickers, pens, and a whole lot more that you need to bring along. Case in point: Analog Totes. Hey, you might already have a spacious tote lying around somewhere, too, but just in case you still need a new one, here's a list of some suggestions.
