Video

This video is 4 years old, but yet this problem is far more prevalent now. Crazy.

I don't have wifi but I still get insomnia

thank you for a deep, wonderful word of wisdom❤

ALL THE BEST LAUREN !!!! GO WIN IT :) 🏅🏅🏅

1, 2, 3, 4,

Its good to see people seeing clearly around phone use and broadly the encroachment of the digital life into the fabric of our lives. I was brought up before the smartphone and hyperconnected digital age, and can remember a more meaningfully connected world, or at least it felt that way for me. It does seem that we have an illusion of being more connected but in actual fact we are not, there is a yearning for deeper more meaningful in person connections. I also feel like smartphones have made our communication lazy and we often talk past each other. I almost feel like 2025 is going to be the year of meaningful connection, community, meeting new people, ditching the smartphone and only using a dumbphone a bit like a landline, picking up and checking it once a day or less often for intentional use. Thanks for your post it gives me hope that good people like yourself are finding other more meaningful ways to live. Good luck xxx

❤️

Yiu are a sweet girl good luck

Thank you! This has been really helpful. ❤

Thanks Lauren

The strenuous life is the best life

I love your videos!

So the bottom line is… don’t let it control you

I miss you on CZcams Lauren 😢❤

"Anxiety is a feeling, not a personality", that's the truth. Thanks for this video 🤍

As a Νetwork/CyberSec and Τelecom Εngineer I couldn't agree more with this video. My access to the digital world is limited, it can't be zeroed out obviously because of my career. Life without social networks, without digital devices 27/7 and so on is a different and healthy life that in this day and age for most people is simply unknown. This video is a masterpiece in any possible way.

Society stressed productivity over living.

I love your balanced approach to living "sugar-free". It's not all or nothing. It's more about health and self love, than restricting yourself. The point you made at the end is really important. You can have a little refined sugar from time to time. The body can definitely handle it. In my opinion UPF is more evil to the health of the human body, than a little table sugar. Good on you!!!

omg, it sounds like you tell the story about me. and how about now, are you feeling better? give me a hope.

Can everyone reply to this comment with their favourite yoga channels? Let's get some recommendations!

I have dealt with extreme insulin resistance thank god it didn’t turn to diabetes even though I’m severely underweight…so I decided to go completely cold turkey on sugar not take it in moderation but erase it from my life I swear I’ve never been so calm and happy and not addicted to the dopamine rush….to be boldly honest sugar is a substance with a HIGH addictive side….a very high one too…if we are eating it since we are children we no longer recognize the normal…. I’ll never feed my children any thing related to an addictive compound in the first years of their development

The only thing is hard to even pass up , is when one time around spring or summer they start introducing world’s finest chocolate and my favorite was the caramel one or almond

Relax

I've been trying to have a "consistent perfect" practice for years now, but I always end up givin it up because there are days I dont feel like doing it, or than I want to stop in the middle and start my day, and it makes me think that yoga its not for me, that I'm not good enough for yoga, but your sincerity on sharing that this is normal and acceptable made me feel like "dude! You have a consistent practice, just keep going!". Thanks for that

Everyone on this thread gets me. CZcams is so addictive

Hi Lauren, I'm glad you made a video like this. I also feel this problem and I'm glad that I'm not alone. I had such an interesting question a long time ago and I would be interested in your opinion. As I myself am a creator of videos on the CZcams platform. So I wonder if I am not creating this addiction for my viewers. I don't want to create this addiction for people. Then I asked myself the question, what is CZcams for? And my answer was that youtube is a great place to relax, get relief from problems and learn something interesting. But nothing should be overdone. (Sorry for the bad grammar, I don't speak English). ❤

Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video. I am on a 5 month sugar free journey and on day 11 today. I have worked so hard to get to where I am and I have come back to your video a few times because I can relate to it. Bless you!

Even if you were together for life. In the end, death would separate. Thanks for the advice and inspiration.

This is a really good video. Green and Gold baby, awesome! Could you please make a video on how you take care of your long hair while swimming? Perhaps a training schedule one too! Thanks, Lauren.

This is the biggest of dog shit, and you here are actually giving people a self filfilling prophecy and reasons to watch more of it, addiction is not real, the person himself engaged in all konds of activities cause he likes it due to overvaluei g it, he can easily choose to not do any kind of activity by evaluating the reasons properly.

It's funny how americans say "sugar is everywhere, in everything" I don't think we have that in Europe (ofc still lots of sugar but ingredient based home cooking is much more popular rather than buying packaged premade food)

It’s been only one year since you made this video. It is still very inspiring.

What a lovely video ☺☺

Yoga is something which can only be felt...I tried explaining it to my loved ones...but only understanding the awesomeness of you once you do it .❤

You are so beautiful. Are you still showering with no soap, i watched your video from 5 years ago.

Your skin is perfect❤

going to swap my youtube addiction for a duolingo addiction haha. at least then i’ll be learning something new

is that any edge extension similar ?

Do you shower with cold or warm water?

This was beautiful ❤

Excellent , very relaxing .

CZcams took my 10 years .. I could have been so much better in other things like studies sports music and in relationship with my family... Today onwards am declaring that am quitting CZcams to achieve my goals and become a person what I wanted to be ....

Finally someone talked about CZcams addiction 😢 Thank you for the tips - 5-4-3-2-1 rule - Working without internet + keep your phone away - Take 3 day social media break 7:45 - 8:01: loved the tip❤

2 mins into video get's excited and goes to shut off wifi. Realized he needs wifi to finish video about no wifi. :(

Em you still eat a lot of sugar I mean maple syrup and honey has the same amount of glucose and fructose as normal refined sugar, fruit juice has a lot of monosaccharides and to every kind of chocolate has added sugar in it. Your diet deffinitly is healthy but it contains sugar

I swam my last race in 2016. I felt much this way, and it was a peaceful, sad, and triumphant ending, but I needed room for new things. Thank you for the reminder of the connection between meaning and sadness of chapters ending, it’s the perspective I needed for some current endings I’m experiencing. Wishing you good success, swim fast 🫧

Goodluck..

Beautiful video! Thank you for the inspiration!

love this video, next time could you use a darker text for the powerpoint slides ? thank you ❤

I am so glad I came across this video. I have been struggling with consistency. In 2022 I did 108 Surya namaskars everyday for a month and I was such a drastic change
