Do you ever catch yourself spiraling into endless worry or analyzing every little thing you do online? If you’re a student, a young professional, or just someone navigating the digital world, you’re not alone. Social media often adds fuel to anxious thoughts and makes it even harder to switch off your mind.
When your nervous system gets overloaded, it’s easy to fall into these patterns of overthinking. But the good news is, a quick reset can break the cycle.
Try this easy “mindful sigh” exercise next time anxiety creeps in:
✨ Inhale slowly through your nose for 5 seconds and hold
✨ Take a small extra breath in, then hold for 3 seconds
✨ Exhale gently through your mouth for 6 seconds
✨ Repeat this process 3 times
This technique helps soothe your nervous system and ease relentless thoughts. Remember, it’s totally fine to pause, stop comparing, and be kind to yourself. You don’t need to dissect every post—just take things as they come.
