〰️ description 〰️
I’ve been hooked on social media since 2021. But recently, it’s gotten out of hand. So, on February 4, I quit social media. I went on a 30 Day Detox. I deleted all my apps, deactivated Facebook, and banned the news. 📺

While the challenge was hard initially, by the end, I didn’t want it to stop. So, in this video, I’ll share why I went on a detox, what it was like, and what I learned along the way. 🧠

A Year Without Social Media // Deleting My Instagram

Back in 2019, I deleted my Instagram of over 4,000 followers. I was spending SO much time on the app dealing with comparison and rarely spending any time alone. As a photographer people told me this was my “business card” and deleting it would be a terrible decision. After getting rid of social media, I was able to focus more clearly on my tasks, goals, and vision for my life.

You have your small friend group in life that will help give you advice and guide you, but without realizing it we allow a much bigger group of people to start dictating our decisions. There’s a clear difference between our followers and our friends and we’ve lost that reality. I decided to get away from social media and delete the account, I needed to reset because what I had been doing was not working.

Social media apps are designed to keep our brains over-stimulated and addicted to their product. Our culture is so afraid of silence and alone time, but we have to start embracing these moments in order to find ourselves.

“We’re living for people we’re never going to meet, and neglecting people that are going to be here forever”

30 Days Without Social Media | My Transformation

Social media became the new great addiction of our modern age. As many other creators already did a social media detox I got curious and decided to try it for myself. So I deleted Instagram, Facebook, Youtube and Snapchat for 30 days. In the beginning it was hard to break my habits, but after 2 weeks I started to see real results. I became more productive, focused and had an overall mental clarity. As I spent less time on my phone, I reconnected with many of my old friends and was able to use my time in many other ways. To be honest, I can only think of positive aspects that I took away from this detox. I encourage everybody else to do the same and I’m sure you will see the same benefits within no time. Enjoy the video!
