The good thing is you know your trigger, what you can do is set yourself a media time where only that certain hour of the day you consume media then you can mute those apps and try to engage in other activities, Try to understand it’s information that you are consuming but we don’t have to let that information consume us,so giving ourselves practical positive self talk of how the media world and your world are seperate entities can help you manage the impact but yes it does have negative impact

In this day and age it is difficult to stay away from the information thrown at you. But to keep your peace of mind, just try and not to indulge in every thing you hear or see. only things that are important to you should be taken in.

Let’s begin by controlling the controllables. You cannot control what’s shared in the media but you can definitely choose to consume it mindfully. By mindfully I mean - 1)pick and choose the news you want hear or know more about. 2)Unsubscribe to channels you feel don’t align with your current goals. 3)Become conscious of the time you spend reading/ watching news. Limit it. Getting a minimum of 7hours of restful sleep, exercising, eating fresh food and hydrating well help us balance our selves through out thick and thin. Maintaining mental stability. Hope this helps.

Heyi..Just detox yourself by limiting media time gradually and try concentrating more on things and activities which makes you feel good and happy. Too much much media can induce anxiety and stress

Overrated things we might stop caring about since 2025 (post 3) 3. Keeping up with the Sharmas Today we have got internet under our fingertips. This helps us to find our lost bosom friends from childhood. But, on another hand, we know everything about a person we wouldn't have known in real life and that was also not needed आज इंटरनेट हमारी उंगलियों के नीचे है। यह हमें बचपन के अपने खोए हुए घनिष्ठ मित्र मिल जाते हैं। लेकिन, दूसरी ओर, हम उस व्यक्ति के बारे में सब कुछ जानते हैं जिसे हम वास्तविक जीवन में नहीं जानते होंगे और इसकी आवश्यकता भी नहीं थी These days when we open our social media accounts to see everyone's life update. And these updates are usually the good ones, about their achievements and how many years of anniversary they are celebrating of their relationship. But, the truth is nobody is having a lovey-dovey life. They do have their fair share of lemons. But, that is not something that gets updated on social media. आजकल हम सोशल मीडिया अकाउंट खोलते हैं हर किसी की लाइफ अपडेट देखने के लिए। और ये अपडेट आमतौर पर अच्छे होते हैं, उनकी उपलब्धियों के बारे में और वे अपने रिश्ते की कितनी सालगिरह मना रहे हैं। लेकिन, सच तो यह है कि किसी की भी जिंदगी प्यारी-प्यारी नहीं है। उनके पास नींबू का उचित हिस्सा है। लेकिन, यह ऐसी चीज़ नहीं है जो सोशल मीडिया पर अपडेट हो जाती है। And this makes us feel bad and mad to self. और यह हमें स्वयं के प्रति बुरा और क्रोधित महसूस कराता है। Not using any social media at all might not be a sound option for a lot us but, we can take few measures. किसी भी सोशल मीडिया का उपयोग न करना हमारे लिए एक अच्छा विकल्प नहीं हो सकता है, लेकिन हम कुछ उपाय कर सकते हैं। So, how are you planing to stop comparing yourself by looking Sharma Ji's beti's facebook and instagram profile? 😉 तो, आप शर्मा जी की बेटी की फेसबुक और इंस्टाग्राम प्रोफ़ाइल देखकर अपनी तुलना करना कैसे बंद करने की योजना बना रहे हैं? 😉 #NewYear2025 #NewBeginning #freshstart
