FIND ANOTHER WAY TO DESTRESS

We spend a lot of time during the day scrolling through social media trying to keep up with what other people are doing. And though it seems like we’re winding down or getting ready for the day when we scroll first thing in the morning or late at night, social media usage can increase stress, anxiety and even depression. Rather than using social media as a way to wind down, considering reading a book for 15-30 minutes a day or picking up another hobby or self-care activity. I’ve been doing yoga and making lists indoors as a way to wind down (I know counterintuitive bc I’m using my body and my mind but I promise it is relaxing!).
