If social media is stealing your peace of mind, it’s time to take it back! Reducing social media use, or quitting social media altogether, will transform your life and lead to better mental health… and in this episode of the Let’s Talk About Mental Health podcast I’m talking about why (including why phone addiction is harmful) as well as how to quit social media, or at least reduce screen time to healthier levels.

We’ll discuss how cutting back on social media changes your mood and helps your brain, and what’s involved in deleting social media from your life (and yes, social media addiction is a thing and it’s harmful). From understanding what’s involved in a simple social media detox through to the attention traps behind social media platforms that are designed to turn you into profit, this is the episode that will help you take back control of your life from the algorithm so you can feel calmer and more in control.

And I promise you: quitting Instagram is not the end of the world (I did it and I survived!) 😁

💡 TL;DR: It’s time to take back your brain! In this episode we’ll talk about life without social media (or at least with a simple social media detox) and you’ll discover how quitting social media puts you back in control. 🙂
