Podcasts about Scrolling

Digital technology has revolutionized the way we live today and is now a fundamental aspect of everyone's lives. However, as we spend so much time online, many problems crop up, one of which is the negative impact on our wellbeing, especially our mental health. Many of us overthink things that are beyond our control and that cause us to feel negative emotions. We linger on the same negative thoughts and emotions too much, which affects how we let bad habits - like porn addiction - into our lives. We strive to escape reality and find the connection we crave with other people or things, and we often neglect to connect with what and who is actually worth connecting to - our true selves. Too much of everything is bad. Therefore, it's important that we know when to disconnect from our thoughts, social media, and our devices, and be able to reconnect with our bodies, emotions, and spirituality. In this episode, Andrew talks about why we shouldn't get trapped in our own heads, the healthy things we should engage in to re-establish connections with other areas of our lives, as well as the importance of constantly growing emotionally and spiritually. He also discusses why it's important to limit our usage of technology and social media. We already have it tough, so why not take time to enjoy the simple things? Spend time with our true selves in a way that allows our minds to deepen our understanding, be challenged, and broaden our views of what is real and what isn't, and our hearts to learn to appreciate even the smallest details of the people we love, to accept different types of people, and our spirituality to become in line with our true purpose.

Scrolling through social media, I see a lot of great suggestions about summer systems, chore charts, and plans to manage the time you have with your kids. We need these things to survive. However, I have to ask, "Are we placing our focus on the areas that our going to serve us best?" Let's stop trying to have a perfect summer and shift to a real summer- and a great one at that!

This week, we're re-releasing one of our favourite episodes from January. Do the web's harms outweigh its benefits? We investigate. The internet is a mess of contradictions. Scrolling through your feed helps you unwind, but it's bad for your mental health. Maybe you've found community online, something many others have found through hateful ideologies and cults. It all begs the question: Is the internet a net negative? All of this week's podcasts help us attempt to answer this question. Featuring: ICYMI, Endless Thread, Boys Like Me, Reply All, 99% Invisible, Maintenance Phase For links and more info to all the podcasts on the show today, head to http://cbc.ca/podcastplaylist.

Scrolling through your social media feeds, especially if you work in any sort of public-facing position, can be hazardous to your mental health. A big portion of the blame belongs to the trolls, who capitalize on their online anonymity to hurl misogynistic or racist abuse at strangers. But a big part of the issue is the social media platforms themselves, and the opaque algorithms they employ that populate our feeds with derogatory posts or disinformation.What if we could wrest control of our online experience back from these media conglomerates and make sure that we're only being shown the things we want to see? How do we do that without reinforcing the filter bubbles that contribute to the social fragmentation of our societies? And could this be the first step towards a safer and more equitable online future?Guest: Tracy Chou, Founder and CEO of Block Party
