📲 DIGITAL DETOX: Taking a Break From Social Media and Your Phone [BONUS: Journal Prompts for Social Media Breaks]

The Root and Rise Podcast | Personal Growth, Breaking Cycles, & Healing Trauma

[[REPLAY]] Listen to this to turn FOMO into JOMO (Joy of Missing Out) with social media. I went on a social media break so you don’t have to - or at least so you can be more prepared for yours!

Even if you don’t want to take a break from social media, this episode can help you be more mindful of its impact on you, your mental health, and your life. This means you can be more intentional about how you use it moving forward.

This important replay is coming to you from the past (7-27-23) just in time for the holidays. Taking a break from social media around the holidays can help you during the stressful holiday season.
