Cultivate Happiness, Stop Doomscrolling, and Discover Your Agency in a World of Negativity

from The Heartful Canvas Podcast · host Jessica, The Heartful Canvas

In an online world dominated by the "need" for engagement, negative headlines soar above the positive and mundane happenings around us. I'm not familiar with the scientific reason, but I do know the human brain seems to be captivated by negativity and controversy. It creates a fascination, a reaction, and a response; so our news, media, social media, and conversations are often oversaturated with it.However, statistics indicate the world isn't any more "bad" than it was in the past; we are just more aware of it. But just because we have access to the constant stream of negativity doesn't mean it's healthy for us or that we are meant to consume it. In fact, statistics say that we consume as much negativity in one day as our ancestors used to receive in their whole lifetime, and the human brain has not evolved to adjust to it. So it's no wonder that we live in a society suffering from depression, anxiety, doomscrolling, burnout, and so much more.But we don't have to leave it at that! Science shows we can take steps to improve our happiness, regardless of what negativity surrounds us. So I invite you to join me for the free 3-week Happiness Challenge.
