Detox on Social Media? What about starting a new life? (Part II)

Today, I want to write about the ways of communication. We all know that Social Messenger Apps  create pressure and a necessity to reply to messages directly. If you don't reply directly, people think that you are unfriendly and ignore them. Patience in our time is more important than ever. Most people are busy and they don't have time. Not listening to their friends, kids and colleagues. Not taking time for a break. Not enjoying the small aspects in life.   Instead they all want to do this in a superfical way. Do we really want to interact with them? However, the keystone of communication is to find a balance. There is no need to reply always. Your friends, relatives, colleagues or other peeps don't have the right to rule over your life, decisions and way of communication. Do we only have the way to chat via Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, Telegram, Instagram and Co. ? NO! If people only have WhatsApp or Facebook Messenger, they can ask which other ways of communication ex...

Detox on Social Media? What about starting a new life? (Part I)

Time is passing  quickly after writing  my first intro about Detoxing Social Media.  For me this is a beginning of a journey and new adventure.  Why is this a new adventure?

Nevertheless, the society gets dump and stupid by using and living in this fake world.  Yes, Social Media are more fake and is the devil in person. Many people either youths nor elderly are obsessed of postings, sel...

Detox on Social Media? What about starting a new life? (Intro)

The society in the 21st century is living in a challenging world. Events, pandemics, wars, climate changes, social inequality or even the behaviour of humans with themselves. Since Social Medias may have an important aspect in our daily life, we tend only to focus and check postings on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Snapchat etc. We expect to have positive comments on our posts and pictures. Negative ones are not the way to go for humans.  Let us ask ourselves - What is the first thing you after you awake?  Relaxing? Enjoying the time to wake up? Hugging your beloved one? Snoozing your clock? OR TAKING YOUR SMARTPHONE AND CHECK ALL THE NOTIFICATIONS, CHATS AND POST?! EXACTLY! Most of us are checking news, chats and posts on their smartphone. They're many ways to take over and detox social media. It's like you're doing a cold turkey.  First, do a check list, which social media apps you have on your smartphone. Do you need a smartwatch? Second, delete most of them! Third, est...
