The thing that has helped me the most is instead of using my phone as my morning alarm, I bought an actual alarm clock that’s on the other side of my room so I have to get up and out of bed to turn it off. It’s really helped me to start my morning instead of spending 15 minutes in bed scrolling and then rushing around because now I’m late for work.

@@mya.xoxo_ Yes, you could. I sleep with a fan on for noise so I fear that if the phone is all the way across the room it may not be loud enough for me to hear it, whereas the alarm clock is definitely loud enough. I also enjoy having an alarm clock so when I wake up in the middle of the night, I can see what time it is. I found one on Amazon that lets you adjust the brightness, which I have enjoyed. This is what works best for me. You do what works best for you!

I recently started leaving a small notebook on my nightstand, in the spot my phone used to be. Now, the first thing I do after waking up is writing a page of things I am grateful for. This has entirely replaced my habit of scrolling social media first thing in the morning, and starts my day off in a much better way!

A lot of times, social media is used to find social connection. People scroll a lot, but maybe they're hoping to interact with someone or some people. If people build their relationships offline, they'd probably spend less time scrolling. Dinner, coffee, walks, just hanging out offline. If we make time for regular, fulfilling interactions with people who we want to be around, we'd probably find that social media isn't needed as much.

Reading a good book feels better than scrolling. Or watching a good movie or show. And of course spending time with family playing board games.

Thank you for this. I no longer use most social media. I have come to the conclusion that “if it doesn’t make me money, I don’t need to use it daily.” The only app I use daily now is KZread. And with YT, I am learning new things daily. I have uninstalled my other apps. They are not necessary for me to stay alive. I am a happier person.

For me its KZread and pinterest that I mostly use

Another thing is swapping that time for a hobby that you can take with you. For example, reading a book, knitting, hand sewing, drawing, etc. Funnily enough, I wasn't allowed to have social media when I was a kid. Everyone i knew had Myspace and Facebook, but my mother always said no. Instead, I spent that time working on my hobbies instead. The more activities that you participate in, the less time you have to be on social media. I have since fallen off that wagon and I'm trying to get back on. This video was the perfect boost! Thank you 😊

Tjis vidieo is very usefull😌♥️

She always uploads things I need the most at that time

My personal tips: 1) Turn on the digital wellbeing widget on your phone that puts your daily screen time on your home screen. 2) Start watching more KZread videos. It makes you used to consuming something a bit longer. 3) Don't take your phone in the bathroom, whether for a shower or for anything else. 4) Don't use your phone while you eat. 5) Start doing "no-screen" time blocks in the day, grab a drink and stare out the window without using your phone. 6) Get into a relatively easy, creative, hands on hobby that takes up your time besides scrolling. E.g. crocheting, coding, origami, reading. 7) No phone during hangouts with friends or dates! Even if your friend is on their phone, let them be and look around. Don't feel awkward, let them finish their thing and get back to you. Don't use your phone, just wait a bit. 8)

Over breakfast and coffee is the worst time. I spend way to long on social media when I want to do something else. Having a hard time with this, its robing me of my life!!

I deleted Twitter, TikTok and Snapchat because it wasn’t something I needed. Although I have Instagram. I have set a limit for 1 hour and even if I go past that I’m intentional to use it less. A part of me wants to not have Instagram but it is also useful for staying informed of different events in college. I have noticed I also spend a lot of time on KZread because I love watching my favorite KZreadrs and sometimes limiting my KZread time is the most challenging

“Practice being an observer of your life” that was a wonderful way to put that and I don’t want to go through life mindlessly. Great video!! ❤️❤️❤️

Found myself doom scrolling later and remembered what you said, and remembered specifically “what am I avoiding, I can do hard things” literally stopped in my tracks and went back to studying! Thank you!❤

Oof, my brain felt screen sick just watching the intro! I really appreciate the nuanced discussion here and that you acknowledged that social media is designed to engage our attention. One thing that helped me stop doomscrolling is getting familiar with that yucky feeling (eye strain, slight nausea) so I can stop myself before it’s too late!

This was great I’ve been wasting hours on social media getting nothing done. You’ve given me the push I needed to delete the apps and stop scrolling thank you x

One thing that’s really helped me is adding the Screen Time widget to the page where I keep my social media apps (this may only apply to iPhones, idk if android phones have widgets). When it’s put right in front of me how many hours I’ve spent on my phone, it makes me second guess adding to it 😅

The idea of putting on music in the morning instead of scrolling through social media is something I will definitely try out!! I notice that in the morning its hard for me to get out of bed because I just pick up my phone and start scrolling but this might actually work.

Thank you for this and all of your videos. This was so relevant to me right now. Thank you for showing me that people who are kind can also be bold and purposeful.

Tips to break social media addiction 1. swap out your habit 2. Out of sight, out of mind 3. Set app limit 4. Delete apps that aren't serving you 5. Pinpoint the real issue 6. Cultivate more mindfulness and practice being present

True facts . We really spend more time on social media. Currently it's controlling our life

My fear of doing bad on important things has, ironically, led me to procrastinate on putting in my normal work ethic. I'm usually pretty okay with social media usage, but it's hard to know when you actually need a break. Rather than you simply wanting to be done with the task

I usually wake up and go straight to my phone to endlessly scroll to wake me up and I love music. So, I think instead of going straight to my phone in the morning I will use the opportunity to play my favourite music, and maybe in my downtime I can even make my own personalized playlist like you did it. When I am stressed from work and I want to take a little break, instead of scrolling through my phone and loosing track of time, depending on the weather I will go outside and sit and focus on the weather and the nature, it is spring right now, so if I want to take a break I should use this time to bask in good weather. On the other hand, if its not good weather, I'm thinking of reading some of my books, because I have so many favourite books and so many books I haven't even read because my time on social media. I really like this video because its very positive and you showed me other ways i can avoid social media. I am subscribing, right now. :)

wow just exactly what I needed this days. I feel so sluggish and demotivated. Starting to gain back my energy and be back on my track. Thank you so much Lavendaire. So so helpful. I'm a follower

Thank you so much, I hope I could express it more. I really needed this because I've been feeling unproductive and down for the past few days and I use social media as my escape goat even though I'm completely aware that it's one of the roots why I feel down.

That is what I need now! Thank you so much, Aileen. You are the best.

I've been scrolling several days recently, and it made me really disappointed and overwhelmed. this video is relatable to what I'm struggling now. thank you!

love the idea of tuning into my senses and focusing on whats around me rather than doomscrolling!

These are such helpful tips! 😊❤ Especially when most social media platforms are starting to have the fyp feature that tiktok has, and then you get addicted to endless scrolling on the fyp

When I feel negativity, I really like to watch your videos because you have a high positive vibe that also makes me positive instantly ❤

4:40 _ What I personally like to go for when swapping habits of scrolling on social media or even using my phone altogether, I like to: read, pray, make a little snack, sit with my fam, go around the house/move, draw (if I has the energy), color in a coloring book, write, journal, clean/reorganize any area, do makeup for fun... these are what I usually go for; though I still haven't broken the habit at all, but it is much less often for me to fall for it again. And when I do fall back into the cycle, I directly DELETE my socials out of my phone.

thank you so much for this video, I really needed it these days. Thank you!

Thanks for the advice that we all need to cut down on social media that it has its both positive and negatives that start my morning off with doing some journaling and also do out for walks and do some drawing to get some time away from social media.

Also, I would suggest removing the app off your phone. This helped me a lot

Social media is destroying our life if we are not use it Wisley. You have explained it well.❤

I appreciate this. My New Years Goal was to stop the scrolling.

i barely use social media but i think one of the most important things is that you need to find something else to do with your time otherwise you just feel lost, i remember when i deleted social media, i didn’t know what to do so it was just replaced with a webtoon addiction so then, i made a list of things i like to do or things i’d like to do or things that may not be pleasant to do but will benefit me and so in times of boredom, i turn to that list and try something from there i found that what really hurts me is doing the same thing for a long time, i like to switch things up to spice up life

Your video editing skill is sheer professional. It’s praise worthy.

I also used to immediately go on my phone when I wake up. I have noticed that when I just wake up, I can concentrate really well. I like to take this opportunity to read a book. I like to keep a book on my nightstand. It has helped improve my patience so much. I like to read something light and it gives me a small dopamine boost. It has made me start my days off with a much more positive mindset!

I am grateful more and more people are uninstalling apps including KZread if you have to because of the "Shorts" that came out that are basically tick tock and just make YT more unhealthy. Thank you for addressing it.

I really needed this today… thank you💕

Thank for these tips. Recently I've been noticing how much time I've been wasting doom scrolling. These will help me to focus more on my hobbies such as chess, language learning, and art

This is so crazy...this morning I uninstalled Instagram because I kept reading negative comments and people's opinions and some of them wound me up but I can't stop! this video is a god send thank you!!!!

I really like the format of this video. The lighting is great, I loved the intro music/ format, and I like the structure ☺️☺️

I have been doing most of things you shared. I just walked slowly on front yard, watched sky and stars and enjoyed with light wind. I watched your video at 7pm 😊

Three things helping me to stop doomscrolling: not to be hungry, to have more sleep and sit less. Especially the last one is a key point. When I sit more than 30 minutes, I need to put something into my palms, that's why I took my phone :) I used to put limits for apps and did not work for me. But when your phone is not in a accessible area it also helps

I definitely spend way too much time doom scrolling & have wanted to break out of it! This made me question a lot of what's behind it. I have chronic/mental illnesses & sometimes it feels hard to do anything else. Things are too daunting or painful. Finding an app that limits FB should prob be my first step. Finding something else to start the day off, such as scripture reading, prayer, journaling, or Bible studies would be a good idea to set up. Putting together small project bags when I am doing good would allow me to easily pick up something like plastic canvas or knitting instead. Not sure how to limit my KZread usage. I love hiding my phone when I'm doing focused work, & it only comes out at meals for pictures lol. A good guide to help me begin to deal with what's definitely become a problem.

thank you so much, Aileen... Your videos are extremely helpful

The first time I actually finished one KZread video. This video is eye opening and our reality. It’s so informative and relatable. Thank you so much!

Love this! Tbh, I’ve been waking up and putting your “I am” affirmations on! No joke. It has helped me so much. Your voice is perfectly soothing and I feel happier and hopeful. 😊❤😘

Watching this, I had to pause and comment. This is just exactly what I was telling myself all day 'I can do hard things"😮Very timely!

Useful tips to practice social media detox and become tremendously productive. Appreciated!!!

1. swap your habit 2. put your phone away 3. set app limits 4. Delete apps you don't need 5. Reflect on why you scroll 6. cultivate mindfulness

I don't scroll on social media 1 - 2 hours after waking up and I still do the same. But recently I scroll through more longer, and i find out the reason that is when i am too tired and sometimes exhausted after completing something really difficult. One thing that helps me go through this bad habit is to have a to-do list of what i want to do during the day, by doing so I know other importance is more worth it.
