One of the worst side effects of social media is overly comparing yourself with others.

And it makes sense, right? You’re looking at staged snapshots of the best moments of someone’’s life and comparing it to the ups and downs of your own experience.

More money. More time off. And better things.

So give yourself permission to unplug.

Use that time to read, take a bath, or journal. Stop the scroll and give yourself space to rest.
