As soon as I left school I started my own small business as an artist at age 18 @artbyhegla . I sell handmade painted pieces on there :) www.etsy.com/uk/shop/ArtbyHegla Sometimes I'm shocked at how many people support it (If that's you, THANK YOU:))

This makes me want to cry. Thinking about how simple life was before social media and internet accessibility to the masses. I’m 32 years old and I feel the bare brunt of this phenomenon. At 21 I took a 22 hour road trip with friends for my birthday. Spent a whole week in Orlando and all of this was before social media addiction. I remember how focused we were on being present because being present was all there was.
I’m 30 too. For me there’s levels of SM. I see CZcams - watching videos or Spotify doesn’t really count. Facebook & Instagram are extremely toxic though. Your taking newspaper front page seeing either drama or peoples business and for what? Why? The amount of hours I’ve wasted honestly makes me sick.
"I forgot how much I hated this" is a great conclusion to come to upon returning to social media land. It's wild that just one week out of normative modern life can bring such a giant perspective shift. It makes you wonder how entrenched our minds are in distraction constantly. And who we could be without it...
Also, I usually watch CZcams videos at an increased speed - because heaven forbid I use a second of time sub optimally - but for this I left it as is, since it was so beautifully shot, paced and crafted.
I m m a c u l a t e v i d e o !
First of all THANK YOU!! thats such a compliment. and YES you're so right, I always wonder where or who I'd be without constant distractions
If to be alive is to live life, then a life distracted is a dead life
I love how every time she’s doing a live stream she likes to chat with us❤️
thats the best part of all of this!! thats why :D
The cycle thing is so true, imposter syndrome when it comes to creating and feeling the need to create has been so overwhelming lately and so I bought a camera to start my photography again but then the pressure of social media judgement made me second guess my own creativity. I've unistalled tiktok but have substituted the time for youtube, just as productive as you can imagine 😬. I'll try this for 3 days, idk if I can handle my own thoughts for a week lmao. Thank you for inspiring me
The urge to be creative is what draws me into social media as well. It's an outlet for that...but then the toxicity kicks in. It's great to hear someone else relate to this issue as well.
Just stumbled on this figured id share too.
I went 5yr without a cell phone/media. Just recently got a phone, but wont be going back to social stuff.
Hard to remember exactly how awesome it was a first but its been great!
THIS IS SO WELL CONSTRUCTED!😍 Your storytelling skills are just so GOOD.....aaand.....you've convinced me to do social media detox too....soo...thank for that.🙂👍
This moved me more than I thought... 🥺❤️
IM SO GLAD AWW!!!
💗💗💗 glad to have you back and glad you learned a lot!
This is a great video and so much truth! Great observations.
I absolutely loved this. Thank you for this video and sharing this with us ❤️
I do really like watching your content but I’m happy for you😊
This was such a well made video and truly inspiring. I’ve done detoxes from social media in the past but have never fully committed which leads me slipping back into old habits.
But really great video. There are so many stunning shots and it’s beautifully edited
You are an absolutely adorable person. I love your story telling and humor.
Hey, I started watching your channel thanks to the roller skating videos, and then went on watching pretty much all the rest, and I just wanted to say you're doing a GREAT job. I have a Booktube channel (in spanish, so nevermind haha) and I know how good it feels when someone appreciates the hours and effort put into a video, so I just wanted to say that: your content is very good, some of best I've seen, well planned, good quality, aesthetically pleasing and most importantly: real.
I wish you all the best 💕
I'm one step to do it. these days i realized I've spent too much time scrolling in instagram, specially the reels part, and if i delete it i will probably spend more time reading and doing things i like. thanks for the video, it was awesome (the topic AND the recorded takes that were gorgeous)
Sorry for not posting for a week guys but this project was MASSIVE! I really hope it's worth it and it always means the world when you guys support me :) Hopefully I can make more content like this in the future because I loved every minute!!

I think CZcams cut your message short Hegla.
I'd love to explore your Skillshare promo but there's no link. 😢
I’m so proud of how much your channel has grown!! I found you through your skating video and loved the editing and engagement since then!!❤️❤️
@@elmazevictor3906 I genuinely can't tell you how much that means!!! I'm glad you found the channel :D
@@Jarod1941 oh thank you so much for telling me! I think I fixed it :D
I love you videos!!
They are so professional and well made. I hope you will get more views, bc you deserve this so much.
you think so?!! that is seriously such a compliment!!! you made my day
This video is honestly so inspiring! I loved every second of it!❤️😍
THATS SO KIND!!!! thank youuu
I’m just halfway true and this really hit me🥺 I have summer vacation and I’m now going to chance my screentime thanks to you hegla❤️
AWW!!! hopefully it'll help because I didn't realise how reliant I was on it !!! but I'm glad this helped you :D
@@HeglaCZcams :D
Every scenes of this video is so beautiful. The blue sky and green grass were especially captivating :)
I love this video so much and learned so much from it! I’m thinking of doing the detox for the whole month of August so I hope I learn a lot!
Thank you.. This is exactly what I needed 👌🏽
amazing video and you're a beautiful person both inside and out thank you for the video
you are honestly my biggest inspiration!! i tried to start my own business although it’s not going well so far but i don’t want to give up yet!
Definitely keep up with it!! I didn't find success for a good few months so don't worry!
Im inspired to change my lifestyle .
Thanks Heglaaaa
IM SO GLAD AWW!!!
Beautiful video... thank you!
glad to have a screentime of 1 hr and 50 mins daily, mostly bc i’m tryna go out more (even alone) since igcse’s hit me like a fat juicy truck last session lmaoo
fat juicy truck... bro im dead
Thank you for this. So inspired.
aww this made me smile so big :D
YOU ARE MY NEW FAVOURITE CZcamsR.
I LOVE CZcamsRS WHO FILM VIDEOS LIKE MINI MOVIES
AWW THAT IS THE BEST THING I COULD EVER HEAR!!
I an a fan starting back the skating vids. I an 42 and would love to do this. I love the idea of just going away sounds amazing. At 18 I was living at very lean life, but be able to to it now.
Love the way she speaks, sounds like a fun person. Today's my day 2
The film making skills on thisss 👏
YOU BAD BITCH ILY
GIRL, I just found your channel!! I’m going a week without social media and started watching this for inspiration! Your channel kinda reminds me of heyxnatalie! Love the video quality, and love your editing style❤️
Love this
Hegla, you're my hero.
Ya ya, sounds dramatic but it's true. You had a creative dream to be a creator, you made that dream a reality and during that adventure you've continued to challenge yourself.
Challenges to be a better person, better creator and look at different aspects of your life that could be improved. Very few people in this world are brave enough to challenge themselves and hold themselves accountable to those challenges. You do and you're brave enough to document everything (very well I might add - you have a keen film maker's eye).
I applaud you, I envy you and I admire you. You're my hero.
🤙
That was the most genuine and kind thing anyone could say wow :0 seriously that made my day!
@@HeglaCZcams
I'm so glad. The fact my comment made your day makes my day.😉
You know, this is one of the best video I've ever watched.. I manage a fan account on Instagram and I really love to share contents there but still I want to do a social media detox too.. So I've decided to install the app once in two days just for 30 minutes.. And now I'll delete WhatsApp and will try not to watch any CZcams videos.. This video is amazing.. ❤️
Thanks Helga I really needed this❤️❤️❤️Sending Love❤️❤️❤️
AWW right back at you !! :) that means the world
@@HeglaCZcams 😁❤️
I’d love to try this💜
Amazing :) !
I, recently deactivated my insta 👌👌👌 I wanted to do this for YEARS
I’m definitely gunna do this
OMG NEW VID YEEESSSSS
DUDE I HOPE YOU LIKED IT!
Just recently I got to check your channel.. Through one of your NATALIE video comments, suddenly I start to love your videos... good work, keep up! Also, I doubt you could tell or suggest any video about HOW YOU EDITING THAT FILMY EFFECT IN TEXT. I would love to know about it!! Thank you
my average is 7 hrs A day which is a big chunk of my day also im watching this to escape from my assignments so I think I'll go to study huh
GO HEGLA! GO HEGLA
HELL YEAH YOURE THE BEST!!!!
@@HeglaCZcams no, queen
I think I am gonna give this a try.
You're so genuine and wise it's unbelievable!! Get away from distractions and be with yourself, it's such a great thing!! Keep it up!!
I actually have a line/poem that I composed and has become my motto, I hope you like it.
"If to be alive is to live life,
Then a life distracted is a dead life"
Its so relatable 😭
I love this as a challenge! Did you talk to your family while doing this?
I feel positive when I watching your Vidio😌, love in Indonesian
Loved this vid.. Fav video by far 🙌🏻 Lot of thoughts.. Looking forward for another video like this Hegla 🙌🏻💕
WOW that genuinely means so much!!! definitely more coming soon :D
Your my favorite CZcamsr :)
THAT IS UNBELIEVABLE TO ME
@@HeglaCZcams youre my favorite girl
damn your videos are so inspiring
thats the highest compliment aww!
Thumbnail is epic
"I forgot how much i hated this" 😂
Wow i thought i was alone on that one! That is exactly why my 1 week without social media, turned to be 1 month without social media, then finally no social media at all
I am NEVER returning to the facebook family chain lol
YES
What app do you use to take videos and edit your videos? Could you tell me please? I like your videos 😊
Equating listening to a podcast while painting to using TikTok was jarring
i dont have any kind of social media besides fb (to be able to contact my family & friends) .. deleted ig, twitter, etc weeks ago and i think it has definitely lifted something off my shoulder. youtube stays tho bc i get a lot of useful info from yt 😅
🔥🔥
YaYY A NeW ViDEo!!
AWW you're back that means so much :')))
@@HeglaCZcams ❤️✨
I'm starting today.
YESSS GO FOR IT!!
What podcasts do you recommend?
Social media is like eating Macdonald's, it makes you happy for a short time, before guilt hits.
after loosing a friend today, and having to attend the funeral, I noticed that I wasted my time on the phone instead of staying with my friend.
Make the difference today, it's your choice, go out and smell the roses.
I’m starting social media detox today for the first time 🎉
Also I wouldn’t consider CZcams as social media
@@halimaff971it is.
i have ur same phone
*nice*
I would like to have a friend like you.
You're so cool 🔥🔥
what a legend you are
@@HeglaCZcams Ure legend not me living a week with no social media 🔥🔥🔥
yo! i think u should check out heyxnatalie, she has some great films and i feel like u both kind of have the same editing style, trust me u won’t regret it 👉🏻👈🏻
Can you still watch Netflix??
im filming my one week detox ,any tips??
I was stalking your channel, it's great and I really like this. Looking for more...👀❤ I also have a channel documenting my life☺✌🏻
Stalking.
@@Jarod1941 maybe that was a autocorrect,I've corrected it now
Hi hegla.
I wonder how that was sounds interesting
:D
Hi hi 💖✨
Hiii you legend :D
This made realise that I have to quit, so I don't watch stuff like this
BTW DONT WANNA SAY THAT BUT U WERE SHOOTING THE VIDEOS AND IT WAS ALSO KINDA STRRUGLE FOR SOCIAL MEDIA APP I MEAN UTUBE AND THE CONCLUSION IS THAT WE CAN NEVER QUIT SOCIAL MEDIA WHICH IS VERY SAD😐
day 1 of getting off my socials
It's a random question
What british accent do you have????
I would say a rather mild Yorkshire one :D
@@HeglaCZcams
From a Canadian perspective, it a sexy as hell one, no matter what label you give it. I could listen to you recite War and Peace backwards and I'd be captivated by every word.
Me: I should try this
Also me: ooh look CZcams, ooh look Instagram
Good thing I don't use 4g unless I really get lost and need maps
That was a personal attack lmaooo
Hello!
holaaaa!!!!!
Your a brits. Nice accent😍
If you truly want to delete social media, instead of deleting the app, the delete your actual account,
true but I cant commit to that lmaoo
Hi hello I'm here 😋😋
the pepto icon bro im dead
@@HeglaCZcams amazing right
why no podcasts? 🥺 (no but fr what’s the issue in that lmao)
she said in the video, you don’t get to think about your own thoughts
podcasts aren't bad inherently but if you can't go an hour without them its probably not good lmao
@@HeglaCZcams
They put me to sleep. If I'm going to be off Twitter and CZcams, I'm listening to music.
I think just one week is nothing really 😅
Hiii what's uppppp 👻
Hi hi hi!!!!! :D
@@HeglaCZcams I love your videos so much
7 days??? Wow!!! Lol 😂
Random question but do you still have problem with the sleep paralysis man?
it took a month but it went away eventually ! now I only have a messed up sleep schedule lol
Holaaa
HOLAAAA!!!
Warning: p A daisy was harmed!
You are very cute. Great video.
I don't want you to stop talkin
sadd. one week is nothing, this is judst to be able to make a video really.
Goodbye socials
czcams.com/video/GEWnXmDfVZg/video.html
Pshhhh a week? I be quitting for good. There's more to life than a screen
you’re on youtube right now though
@@jessiechristinak This is why I be quitting for good 😂😂😂 Soon as my final assignment is in I won't need the web
A week ? Thats a joke lol.
I only consider twitter,tiktok,facebook and insta as social media. I use snapchats only for streaks. And youtube is not toxic. Im gonna try this now. Scared cuz i'd be missing manu comic and anime updates on insta 😭
YOu can message your friends. That's ok. Don't even use that Headspace shit. Just put the fucking phone away.
