Healing Media Content

Social media has become part of our day to day life routine. Through social media; we stay connected with family and friends, we find out about events, and we use social media to laugh at memes or watch funny pet videos. While there are lots of benefits to connecting online, social media can also start interfering with our life, cause self-esteem issues and it can sometimes take a toll on your mental health. You may want to take a break from social media if you find yourself getting upset every time you log on, find yourself writing rude comments or thinking negative thoughts, or when you start to compare your life with that of others. You get to decide how long that break needs to be and it can be anywhere between a few hours to a week.

Also, on social media there is a community of healers that are committed to creating positive, informative and uplifting content. They are using social media platforms to engage with people on a similar healing journey. We encourage you to take a look at, who are you following? Is the content you are ingesting uplifting or is it bringing you down? If it uplifts you, try to find other people that post similar content. If it brings you down, then maybe you might want to unfollow or remove from your feed. If you don’t know where to begin, you can start by following us at @UNLV_Care.
