Why does my "rest" always turn into scrolling?

Nasreddin decided one afternoon to rest under a tree and do nothing. His neighbor found him an hour later — he had fed the chickens, mended a fence post, and was halfway through combing the donkey's mane. "I thought you were resting," said the neighbor. "I told my hands to do nothing," said Nasreddin, "but nothing was too small a job. So they found bigger ones." This is your scrolling. You schedule rest, but rest with no shape is not a plan — it is a vacancy. And vacancies get filled by whatever is nearest and loudest, which is always the phone. The intention was real. It just never had a job description. The fix is not more discipline. It is giving the empty hour an actual, specific, physical thing to do — even a small and boring one — before the phone gets the chance to volunteer.
