The urge to join society’s frantic pace, maintain digital connections, and check another task off the list as is intense as it is constant. Protecting what really matters is difficult in a world of distraction, but it is not impossible.
After taking steps to let go of daily distraction and become a Hands Free Mama, Rachel Macy Stafford realized just how valuable it truly was. This awareness brought her to a new challenge: maintaining and protecting her hands free life in a world inundated with distraction, perfection, and societal pressures.
In Hands Free Life, Rachel shows you how to:
· create meaningful human connection despite the busyness of life;
· embrace today even though the world tries to convince us we must think ahead to tomorrow, next month, and next year; and
· protect your children’s innocence, your marriage, your faith, and what you value most despite pressures from society and the latent dangers of technology.
Whether you are just starting your hands free journey toward a more present and gratitude-filled life or have been at it awhile, the habits and practices outlined in Hands Free Life will benefit anyone striving to grasp what really matters in a world of distraction.

It took one day. I only could allow one day to read Hands Free Life. I was busy being a dad, a husband, and a cancer patient. I knew I was distracted, but there was a purpose. I was on a mission, and I acknowledged my limited time. As I settled in to read Rachel’s words, my heart stayed in my throat the entire journey. She gets it. She knows we’re distracted, and it’s not just the number of screens we have in our lives. It’s our incredibly complex, crazy, and somewhat out-of-control lives. Rachel Macy Stafford will help you reconnect and build strong relationships. Even if you make a moderate amount of effort, your family will thank you for strengthening your relationships!

Reading Hands Free Life spoke to me at a deep, heart level.
