Speaking Through My World with Rosie Motene
Social media detox and dopamine fasting.
Social media detox and dopamine fasting.
Come with me as I share the journey of my 21-day social media detox and dopamine fast. I abstained from X, Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, LinkedIn, and YouTube for 21 days.
A dopamine fast is the practice of denying yourself gratification (music, sugar, sex, social media, or whatever your poisons are) for a set time, I completed 24 hours. It is based on the idea that abstaining from external stimuli will 'reset' your happiness baseline, allowing you to 'feel more' when the fast is finished.
The process was worth it and also helped me set my intentions for the year.
Stepping into the 5th floor with clarity and even more purpose and agency.
