Dopamine Detox is a Thing

Dopamine detox is a thing, it’s real, and an act of self-love 💕

A couple years ago I was drawn to ease back and pull back on the
excessive posting and over-sharing on social media. Sure, I felt the FOMO and the guilt of not “keeping up” with my “friends” and family but guess what? Life continued, and the important conversations and quality time spent happened in real life anyway. What I needed to know I found out about anyway. I have learned so much about myself getting rid of noise cluttering my thoughts and perceptions. What did we ever do without Facebook? Don’t get me wrong I see the value in it too but there is a reason why the people who created it will not let their kids use it. It’s ok if you go to a concert and actually enjoy it and see the band with your own eyes and not through the lens of your phone. It’s ok to have a spectacular meal and not share it with the world. It’s ok to be present and actually live your life.
