Off topic, You've got really good hair😍 I quit FB and IG a while back and I'm not planning on going back, Too much pressure to feel validated and at the end of the day it's all smoking mirrors.

Spirituality isn't weird. If you need food for your body, you also need to feed your soul somehow. So don't shame yourself out of it.

Yeah I have reflected on much of the same things, and I don't think that this topic concerns women more than men - we aren't that different to eachother. I've been through two rounds of almost purging my social media presence since 2008 and I've come to realize that it's happening in cycles for me, like that some anxiety level reaches the top and I react with the flee or fight instinct, but always comes back for a new round. Social media is a tool, and like any other tool in the real world you can harm yourself on it, but with practice it can make wonders for your cause.

Thank you for this video. ❤

i went through a hard time 2 years ago . And i would always post these vulnerable moments of myself and having people watching me who didn’t really care about and i would expose myself too much and i also had people that never liked me watching my life and it honestly made me uncomfortable

Just deleted Instagram "again" today. Causes me depression and I waste lots of time

Instagram is a cesspool pool. Definitely deleted that account. Facebook is getting bad too. You are gorgeous and don’t need anything done at all. I’m sure your boyfriend will say the same thing. Social Media has bad effects on society overall.

hi so i installed instagram again yesterday cause my exam's got over and idk scrolling on yt as well and came across your video decides to watch it and tbh i can relate to you in every way and i just checked my screetime and realised it was 5 hours and 54 minutes doesn't seem bad right? here's the twist it's 6:27 am rn in india and im already at 6 hour screentime so deleting instagram again cause i don't wanna just scroll mindlessly and do nothing in my sem break rather i want to be productive and it's all thanks to you !

Subbed! Been loving watching these vlogs! Thank you a lot for your advice videos and these vlogs! You rock! Keep killin it!

Great video. But I just want to ask, how you you get over the fear of missing out? Like I usually just watch other people's stories and stuff but I ask my self do I really need to be watching other people's lives. Not knowing what other people are upto gets to me all the time. Any advice would be helpful. I just want to delete the app and not care about other people's lives.

Caroline, your video on quitting social media was very true. i think its so sad how many young women are being impacted & men with depression because all the filters and comparison that is literally stealing their life, joy, & just moments,, time is currency!!! my hubs & i were talking about how kinda strange it is that we as a culture take selfies.. There is an amazing documentary by former model from the 70s called Gods of the new age, it is so interesting hope you get to see it. i saw it years ago seemingly by accident.. its nice seeing people starting to see the down and sad side of social media 💟 Shalom :))

REMEMBER me when you're famous! continue please I'll always love to watch your videos ❤

social media is very dangerous and toxic

Omg obsessed w you, you have such a beautiful energy

Hey Wandering with Caroline, really nice video ! I was wondering if I could help you with Best Quality Editing in your videos better than your Editor with good pricing and also make a highly engaging Thumbnail which will help your videos to reach to a wider audience ?

Geniune question.. I have deleted most of my social media except for Facebook, the enrichment and fulfillment out of life I get now I'm not wasting time doom scrolling is amazing but I want to sell some things online, I can't think of how to do this except for with Facebook marketplace.

Bravo. IG is corrosive and a time thief. I think we often forget to factor in the background static social media has in our lives. It may not be front of mind but it’s always lurking in the background affecting us.

Love your channel just found it and subscribe 😊

It took me a broken phone to stop using social media. My iphone was beyond repair because it fell out of my pocket rock climbing lol and instead of spending the money to buy a new one i actually downgraded to a black berry. Its been almost a month and i feel free but totally agree with the points you brought up in your video.

you're gorgeous!

You’re so beautiful

You sharing about the omegas and consistent periods as I watch, with my channel all about periods :D

Modern people think they're so much smarter than their ancestors. It doesn't take a genius to figure out sharing pictures of your hoo ha on the internet and chasing likes and status with a fake persona isnt fulfilling. Neither is money or status. Yet somehow people are still making the same mistakes and desperately trying to convince others they're happy. A bunch of sad little animals who want to be part of the herd rather than do the necessary work to become a genuine individual with their own thoughts and opinions.

Hey Caroline, I wish you the best on your job interview. If you're so hyped up in the video I can only imagine what you'll feel before it starts. Remember, don't make the interview any bigger than it is. Have a Nice Day

love meditation - I find its about actively spending time 'alone' to figure out more about ourselves vs getting it from the external outside world. Anyways good luck!

Brilliant that you've found the real in a world of fake. 🙏🏻 keep going. The bhagavad gita might be very interesting to you

This is really helpful.Thank you!

Good points! Keep going!

I liked your video and I have no friends or family and I've learned to love myself and who I am and I feel good and never alone. The part about your boyfriend, what had happened was meant to happen when you met him at the bar. It was God's blessing given to you and it comes unexpectedly through your faith. Have a Nice Day

coffee is a drug end of the story , i dont know how humanity wants to get better while majority consume legal or illegal drugs everyday , althought they say magic mushrooms have interesting benefits

I like that you talked about being uncomfortable sharing provocative pictures. I have a lot of my male coworkers in my following and immediately felt the male gaze at the office when I started sharing pics of my progress at the gym. It doesnt sit right with my soul, deleted the app off my phone this week.

you go girl❤ Life is so much better without social media

Have you heard of matcha? It has l-theanine and caffeine so it keeps you calm while being alert and focused. I'm not sure if you're trying to cut caffeine all together, but matcha is great imo. There are also so many benefits to matcha. If interested, try looking into ceremonial matcha and not culinary since you won't get the full benefits of matcha with culinary grade. Hope everything works out!

I just diactivated my account, I need a long break

stimulants just give you so much anxiety at the end of the day. I used to take methylphenidate to cope with the workload of my studies but I think it ultimately was a net loss, because my sleep quality nosedived and the jitters made me more scatterbrained in the long-term. you're sacrificing the future for the present really. it's only good for short sprints. if you even start drinking coffee again look into supplementing L-theanine. it removes the jitters and gives you hours of serene stimulation and focus

🙏🙏🙏

I'm seeing your channel after a while, and like I've said before, the vibe and positivity really got me smiling again☺️

Great Video Caroline! Do you edit them yourself?

Great vlog. Algo bump

I feel what you are saying. Though atm I don't feel like fully deleting Instagram because I can still see some benefits (and prob also for "anxiety" reasons), I can def relate and felt like deleting it at times, and who knows... maybe I will sometime in the future?

Deleted all social media. It’s boring now honestly

I'm not quite sure how I ended up watching your video, but it's interesting to hear about someone in a completely different country and work area think through their own productivity strategies (and life!). You sound like you're on top of it

Do you try to not eat dinner while working? I never know if I should just bring dinner to my desk or step away

Congratulations on 300 subs! You deserve it, love listening to your vids while i work or cook. Keep doing what you do :)

Wish I could get by on 5 hours of sleep but 8 hours minimum is what I need to function. I may try setting a night alarm to remind myself when to get ready for bed I’m 100% a snacker. If there’s anything I’m craving like chips or chocolate I tend to have it right away. I’m learning to let those cravings go by and choose healthier options. 2024 is the year I’m breaking out of unhealthy decisions and implementing new ones 🎉

I really like these vlogs because it is like watching someone do what most of us do everyday, work at our desks a lot. I also do the 50 min. work sessions, I still struggle with not browsing the web when I'm in a work session, I want to become more strict with this. Do you do a good job of staying off the web during your work blocks?

Very creative pov just a question how would u grow ur career as a digital creator if you dont use social media?
