DOES THE SOCIAL MEDIA FESTIVE FEED MAKE YOU WANNA HAVE A BIG 'OL DRINK?!
OK, we've knee skidded into December so ima gonna need you to start putting the sprouts onto boil and play 'Last Christmas' on repeat on your Spotify playlist until I tell you to stop ;-)
I'm only joking - come back, come back! In honesty the run up to the festive season can be a bit overwhelming to say the least especially when you throw into the mix the digital overspill of our social media feeds to amp up the offline noise
Currently my Instagram, Facebook and Twitter apps are already ramping up in the green, red and glitter stakes with people sharing plans of parties, get togethers, gifts, recipes, bustle, trees, wrapping and on it goes - hello overwhelm! With this in mind, it's really important that we do what we can to manage the effect this has on us and get conscious around all that tapping, liking, posting and scrolling.
Don't get me wrong, I double love social media, and yet, if it's making us feel on edge and causing us to compare ourselves to other people - what they're doing and how they're spending their time and cash etc - then it's time for you to take action.
Cue one of my very favourite and most effective methods from my #comparisonfree box of tricks.
Treat your social media feeds like a house party for online harmony.
Eh? Yeah, a house party! Check out this short video I recorded for you below to hear the what, why and how to apply this funky little method that will bring your feeds inline with what works for you and return some calm and peace to your mind too:
Jeez Lucy - what's with the nails?! ;-)
What do you think? How easy was it for your to spot the brands, people and things that were triggering you? How does it feel to curate and be conscious around that content you've been letting in?
