How To Stop Doomscrolling (Somatic Meditation To Break Your Social Media Addiction)
Description
In today's digital age, social media has woven itself into the fabric of our daily lives, offering both connection and distraction at our fingertips. And while social media has some beautiful and supportive aspects, the algorithms behind it are designed to be highly addictive and manipulative.
We scroll, hoping to find something uplifting, educational, or distracting, but we soon find ourselves lost in the unfulfilling world of doomscrolling. The endless scroll for dopamine hits can lead to significant costs: nervous system dysregulation, emotional exhaustion, and a disrupted sense of self.
In this episode of Somatic Healing Meditations, you’ll be guided to connect with your body in a way that gently regulates your nervous system. Then we’ll use a body-centered emotional processing technique (called Regenerating Images in Memory®) to examine and process the deeper feelings, needs and desires that are driving your doomscrolling in the first place.
This meditation can be incredibly regulating and clarifying, empowering you to create a more mindful relationship with technology—one that supports your well-being rather than depleting it.
