Fixing my attention span - healing an exhausted brain

In this video I wanted to talk about my attention span, and how it was affected by my internet and phone usage during my college days, often using an otherwise wonderful tool in unhealthy ways, particularly social media. I love technology, but realized I needed to cultivate balance, not addictive habits. I noticed such a big change in my ability to be without stimulation that I decided certain lifestyle changes were in order, and this led me on an interesting journey of self discovery. I ended up realizing how much these habits were affecting my brain, how I felt mentally overwhelmed by scrolling so much even though I thought I was gravitating to it. Many revelations later, I’m a very different person. This experience may not be yours, but I wanted to share, because I think we can all benefit from reflecting on how we use our limited time, and how tools can aid our growth instead of hinder our progress.
