Keep It Light: Tips To Not Get Overwhelmed By Social Media

Understand The Curated Nature Of Social Media

Remember, social media is often a highlight reel. People share their best moments, not the struggles. Don’t compare your behind-the-scenes to someone’s highlight.

Separate Opinion From Fact

Social media is full of opinions, not all of which are grounded in fact. Learn to distinguish between personal viewpoints and objective truths.

Don’t React Immediately

Before responding to a post or comment, take a deep breath. Reacting impulsively can lead to misunderstandings or regretted comments.

Avoid Getting Caught In Online Drama

Don’t engage in heated arguments or drama. People often argue online without considering the real-life consequences. Let it go!

Curate Your Feed

Follow accounts that uplift, educate, and inspire you. You don’t need to follow everyone – make sure your feed serves you and not the other way around.

Take Breaks From Social Media

It’s okay to take a break! Disconnecting for a day or two can help clear your mind and give you perspective, so you’re not overthinking everything online.

Use Humor To Keep Perspective

Sometimes, taking a step back and laughing at something silly can help you realize how unimportant certain things are in the grand scheme of things.

Focus On What Truly Matters

Don’t let fleeting online trends or comments distract you from your real-life priorities. Take time to reflect on what really matters to you.
