Doom Scrolling Kills
It's slowly killing us.
Do you ever look up from doom scrolling and whisper to yourself,
“Wow… I feel like shit?”
Yep. The conveyor belt of comparison got you.
You know it.
I know it.
It’s slowly killing us.
Today… this is just a gentle reminder to put down our phones and invest in the uncuratred real lives around us.
Take a deep breath.
Smell some flowers.
Eat some nachos.
Regard the magic of your hands.
Enjoy other peoples smiles.
Hold a smile for 30 seconds.
Read this poem.
Ask for something embarrassing.
Enjoy a bowel movement.
Listen to the geese migrating.
Contemplate the mystery of your consciousness.
It’s all surprisingly magical.
