69: Can Constant News Impact Your Healing?

Is the 24/7 news cycle draining your energy? In this episode of Wellbeing Interrupted, I share what changed for me when I stopped watching the news—and how it’s supported my healing in ways I didn’t expect. Discussing an article from Mayo Clinic and my own lived experience with MS and Stage 4 breast cancer, I talk about the toll that constant noise, images, and updates can take on our nervous systems—and what we can do instead. I also issue a gentle challenge to you this week: let’s both turn down the noise, even just a little, and create more space for healing.  If you LOVED the episode, share it on Instagram stories and tag me @hurdle2hope  Key Takeaways Why constant news coverage activates the stress response How that affects your healing and nervous system What I’ve learned after 12 months without a TV How to create an environment that supports recovery A gentle challenge to reduce the noise and reset  Show Resources Healing Journey QuizEpisode 67: A New Diagnosis or Prognosis?
