My journey to a minimalist life
My good friend Becki is an incredible content creator. She has recently started a new Instagram account under the handle @thosegooodvibess. There are some beautiful quotes and sayings on there and I really recommend you head over and follow!
This September I have decided to take a break from all of my social media accounts including Twitter and Instagram. I will be removing the apps from my phone for the full month and I am really looking forward to the break. This is a campaign from RSPH called Scroll Free September.
After a much-needed break from consuming too much social media, I've decided to change how I use networks! For those of you who don't know I decided two weeks ago to have a 'Social Media Cleanse' where I unfollowed all accounts on Twitter, Instagram, Google Plus, Tumblr and Snapchat. I still posted on social media using the apps but I didn't look at other people's posts for this time.
With so many posts being published on social media every day it is sometimes hard to resist a scroll through. This is something that I have been conscious of the past few weeks and I realised that I would spend up to an hour of my day scrolling through Instagram alone! I have decided to have a couple of weeks away from social media consumption to see how it affects my productivity and mindset. I will still be posting as usual with my updates but I have dedicated apps for this sole purpose of posting not consuming.
