- I did nothing for a day in attempt to reset my mind with a dopamine detox and
share what I've learned and can be benefits of taking a day off - of basically everything.

While looking for the solution to all my suffering on the internet, I've come across and
have resonated with how dopamine influences your motivation to do things in anticipation of a reward. If you've ever felt like your attention is sprinkled all over except on the things that actually are important to you and help you grow then I'd recommend considering some distance from everything to get closer to yourself.

I swear the best inspiration comes from being bored and then going for a walk, or hanging with friends, etc. You can't *force* ideas to happen!
I’m on day 5 of my social media detox, which means no Snapchat and instagram since my addiction has become problematic for me. So far I really have been changing! I’m spending more time reading, thinking, reflecting, and learning. Finished 4 books in the past 2.5 weeks, which is insane. I’m loving being disconnected from the meaningless digital world of likes and followings, and being more connected with my inner self, things, and people that truly matter to me.
but how are you on yout- nevermind
niki ortiz alie😂😂😂😂
@@nicole-bq5pr i think she meant no snapchat and instagram
I hope to try out something like this. I want to achieve that goal where I go back to focusing on myself like how I used to do back when I was a kid/early teens.
However, my only concern is the "no food" part. I don't know if that means not having any junk food or what.
“you can’t run from yourself”
jeez jusuf you don't have to call me out like that
Every addict's worst nightmare...
ty for being one of my role models for these past two years
whanderlust • we all want to be like her when we grow up, just like her!. So much inspiration
@@fitfirst4468 true
whanderlust • it’s FACT. Facts only.
I don't know how to say this, buy you are one of the most beautiful girls I've ever came across. And trust me, it's not only for your physical appearance (which is obviously fairy-like). But it's mostly your inner glow that makes you stand out. The way you carry yourself, the thoughts you share, the things you do. It all just speaks of a special, talented, intelligent, kind-hearted, loving and loveable person. Thank you for sharing your inner beauty with us. Love you Juss!!
i can totally agree! :)
Simp
@@VinnieMeatchops can't a girl appreciate an other girls beauty? :)
I agree so much 💞 she's so inspirating
@@VinnieMeatchops grow up
I swear, you will love mindfulness more and more every day! I live like this for 8 months and ıt feels really great and alive! :)
that's amazing =)
Was it scary at first?😞
Bende başlamayı planlıyorum hayırlısı =]
I did this too. I had such a moving experience the first day I was fine the second day I was cleaning my room and I dropped a vase by mistake and when it broke I just started crying and cried for like 2 hours, I still don't understand ehat happened but it felt really liberating.
i've been laying down and doing nothing because i have depression and my parents can't understand why am i like this. and social media has been ruining and stressing me out lately, maybe this dopamine detox is a way to go. i would love to take a day off of toxic things and just learn something new about myself, rethink some things and go out into nature. thank you so much for making this video and being so inspiring!
be kind and compassionate to yourself also
@@chloe10161 of course ♡
If you have the littlest interest in drawing, do that. Just draw something that comes to your mind and if it's just doodling stuff that doesn't seem to make sense. For me it's the best way to take time off, relax and reflect. It's like meditating or journaling.
(edit: Idk why I said that lol. It's just I can't stay off my phone if I do nothing and that way I still do something, maybe it helps you)
When I was 17 I was like that too. Cried a lot at night. Slept all day. I started meditating and that helped a lot. I ended up reading a ton about mindfulness and different Buddhist cultures and it gave me something to focus on. I started changing my life to focus on little aspects of self care (sleeping a regular schedule, eating three healthy meals a day, stretching and jogging.) Eventually I was able to be more aware of myself and help get the reins on my depression. But yes, I probably filled up 10 journal and have a box full of song lyrics and paintings at my parents house still. I hope you find your happiness through creativity and self exploration. There is a light at the end of the tunnel. They wouldn't call it growing pains if it didnt hurt. Xo and it sounds cliche but mental health is a lifetime journey not a destination. Be well.
@@masterhide hey! Did you read books about mindfulness? If so, do you have any recommendations please?
This is how the 90s felt. Glad you took time time to 'turn off' & tune into yourself.
this sounds so interesting, id love to do it
i love this. especially the idea that you can’t run from yourself. i used to go to a restaurant by myself for this reason, without sitting and scrolling on my phone. such a good reminder.
girl’s editing game is on fire!❤️
I've been "doing nothing" for years. Laying down and letting my mind drift for hours is my favorite way to relax and recharge. I highly recommend 🙌
Same here 🌷
I do walk, cycle or run on a free day but will relax and lay down for hours, staring at the skies through the window or closing my eyes and flow in relaxation, idea's and thoughts or nothing. Watching YT, listening to music.
I was prepared for lockdown that's for sure.
your filmmaking keeps getting better and better, i love this message of finding stillness!
Confrotating our thoughts can be scary but it is definitely life changing especially with social distancing; really interesting video thank you
This month is called Ramadan, muslim people are fasting in this month ❤️
ramadan mubarak
ramadan mubarak ttoooo..
whanderlust • thank you❤️❤️
Hydross Tkd thank you❤️
I want to learn more about Ramadan tbh
i really love this new format so much 🥺 thank you for the wise words and calming comfort you're giving during this time
Ive been watching you for years, and you never fail to inspire💕💕 You’re my role model honestly x
these couple of videos are my favorites you’ve ever made! thank you for inspiring me. i’ve been wanting to do this for awhile and did halfway for a couple days a few weeks ago but i think now i’m going to follow your format and really go for it. thanks!
Liked video before watching because I already know it will be worth watching
I literally waited for pt 2 the whole week! I did some dopamine detox as well and I felt amazing! Thank you for your inspiration :)
anyway i love this documentary sm, well actually i love every single video of yours, ty for always being here, ily and stay safe. 💖💖
thank you so much for being my role model for literally the last two years. I remember watching one of your videos and getting to inspired to make a change in my life. That was honestly what got me out of a really dark time in my life. I’ve realized that there’s so much more to life than darkness. I just needed someone like you to show me. So I really can’t thank you enough.
Ok I m going to do this tmrw! I really need to face my thoughts, because I have been trying to stay distracted from them all the time. Thank you so much for the inspiration!
Great video. There's so much power in the stillness! 😊
my thoughts are terrifying yet has peaked my interest at the same time omg
i just wanted to tell u that i have watched ur channel for like 3 years now and i`ve never ever missed any of ur videos! u r such an inspiration, and not only for me but for thousands of people out there. thank u so much for ur videos, they r always so beautiful, calming, and also really important. love u so much xx
(sorry for my poor english)
dear jusuf,
I can't stress enough how much your videos make my day. these last two ones, especially, inspired me so much! I often feel like my digital intake takes over my life and consumes all my energy, becoming a toxic aspect of my life. as dumb as it may sound, it always seems impossible to just - take a break. but this video reminded me that I can and I should take a break and revalue what's truly important and beneficial for me. thank you so much for your amazing content! I can wholeheartedly say that it's one of the few things I would never regret spending my digital time on. ❤️
This video was so calming! love it
you're amazing and so is your content, thanks for the inspiration
The spaciality and the uniqueness of your videos and content is its Rawness, neva get it faided because it rarely exists anywhere in the contents elsewhere❤🎋
Thanks for this sweet little sharing. It was surprisingly pertinent. Maybe a lot of people are turning to face themselves in this crisis. This is so quiet and honest. Thanks again.
I'm gonna do this on Sunday!😍 Love this video btw!
I've never heard of this method before, Thank you for sharing this!
I feel like doing this tomorrow
I quit social media for six days after your detox video. And that helped me to think about the things I was avoiding all the time. Ly❤️❤️
i wish i could keep a journal like you do, great video!
Your channel is what I need right now
i love this so much, have a nice day jusuf
i need this so much, i desire so much time off when im busy, but then when i’ve nothing to do i feel so overwhelmed and uncomfortable wtf
"You can't run away from yourself" I feel that soooo much. I enjoy multi-tasking and always having something to do because when I'm not occupied I overthink everything and it's quite overwhelming and I don't know how to manage it. I think I might go on a dopamine detox someday and hope it will turn out well haha. Thanks for sharing this little journey with us btw !
I tried after I heard from you. My very first day I feel so craving to use social media but time pass by in the afternoon I star to grab the book which I have been put off for awhile. I feel more clam mind and don't rush for most of the things I used to do. But in second day I failed to do so because I have such personal things happened and it feel very uncomfortable to talk with my friend after that I lost my mind and start using social media. Just snap of what happening in mine but I would definitely corporate it again since I found that my mind need a break. Thanks a lot for your hard work. Keep it up 👍
I took a class in college called Eastern & Western Mysticism and the teacher assigned us to sit on a chair and do nothing for an hour. It was hard to do and I can relate to what you said about facing yourself. A few of my trips on psilocybin mushrooms had the same theme of facing my thoughts and healing and purging what came up. Our loving and compassionate attention heals all. Thank you for sharing and kudos to you for doing a whole day of this! Self love at its finest.
I tried to be as productive as possible, overwrote my goals and ambitions but spent most of my time procrastinating and mindlessly playing games on the phone. However I tried dopamine fasting along with meditation today, and I've never felt this alive, happy and grounded in a long time. THANK YOU Jusuf
jusus thank you for being such an inspiration , im definitely trying this tomorrow , also can we all appreciate how adorable is bourbon ?
You've created this whole new aesthetic 😊
since your previous video i've been trying to do this but now i'm definitely going to try!
kinda early ,love you jusuf!
I already have been working on reducing dopemain but this just inspired me to do a digital detox for a day or maybe several thx for sharing your experience
ughhh girl i don't think u understand how freaking much i adore you! your videos are seriously the only thing keeping me sane during these crazy times. such a refreshing vibe, so inspiring and motivating that i finally found enough courage to start my own channel (all because of you), so girl thank u so much for being such an inspiration
right?! THIS IS EXACTLY HOW I FEEL
whanderlust • and that’s on periodddd
@@asialanzi5471 is she a fallen angel? well YES
Habe direkt Lust bekommen das auszuprobieren💭
PS:Ich liebe deine Videos😊💓
hi jusuf! i love your videos
woah I watched a video from you alooonggg time ago and would've never expected to have some of my songs in your videos! thank you so much, loved this vid!
WOAH I love your music its some of my fave to enhance my visuals!
Jusuf tysm!
I recently stopped writing on my journal i think i need to write now. Thank you for your videos! Love your craft ✨🤘🏼♥️
I decided to do the dopamine detox the moment after I finished watching your previous video and I can totally agree with your statements about productivity, stillness and weird feelings in general.
I've been watching your channel for around 4 years now and you never fail to inspire me. Thank you, Jasmin. Take care ❤
You are so inspiring😊💕 I love your videos💚 I hope you are doing good ❤️
Hi jusuf, i really love your videos. Stay safe, i love you🥰
This is lovely. Thank you :)
I did this yesterday. I'm not trying to start a competition but I only allowed myself water, sleep, meditation and sitting with my thoughts. I removed any way I had to tell the time so I had to estimate a lot of it, and I bet I went to bed waaay earlier than usual!
It was a really _interesting_ day. I feel a lot calmer today, and less urge to do 'something/anything' just to fill the void of nothing - I feel a lot more comfortable with nothing now. My next one will allow journalling/writing cause I think that would be a good resource to look back on.
So inspiring, i want to do this after my exams, because for now I just really have to study and since there is no school to go to and ask questions, me and my friends discuss topics we dont understand jet. But when thats done i would love to do this "cleanse"
Just for doing the Andrew Kirby Detox you get my like, well done it was not easy and I applaud you
We're all so entrenched on technology that it has become an ongoing social-media pandemic for years
or it's just me.
heck. 2012 was the start for me.
i have an internet addiction.
just imagining doing this, it's pathetically making me feel 'no thanks. i'd rather stick my face back into it.'
This is a serious problem...
*continues to use it*
Bless you Bourbon!
this is really cool, definitely trying it and might make my own video documenting the experience
Woahhh hold up. Can we just address the editing?! Holy cow man it so gooood😍😍
thankuuu
I love your videos 💜 from Argentina!
I can totally relate to your situations. I know what's going on, and we're same though. Let's be stronger
a role model !!
I just found your channel and I love your videos but I love your doggo more ❤️
I love my self beceause i'm muslim and i'm SO happy alhamdulilah ❤❤❤
Watching this while scrolling through the comments and being on Instagram on the phone, I realized that I need to do this too :D when I am with my boyfriend or friends, I am not using my phone/apps the whole day... I just can’t stand being alone !
I am obsessed with Bourbon he is soooo cute. I also adopted a dog last year and love him with all my heart
I'm gonna try this. I think more people are waking up to how much unnecessary noise we fill our minds with everyday with online media. We can thank Covid for some of that realization. I always knew if it weren't for my job, I wouldn't know what else I was doing in life. Since lock-down I've had some what of a taste of what life would be like without the hustle. It's scary, but also mind opening. We can become the better version of ourselves we envision. It's just not going to come as instantly
yay, a new video every Friday!!!
Beautiful soul ❤
Loved it 🥰🥰🥰
Thank you lassie.
Just discovered your channel.
i had actually never heard of this but i think this would be so good to process all my thought and actually just to finally think all my thoughts? If that makes sense? I can also imagine this being really good to boost creativity. Absolutely loved this video and the calm vibes from it already!! One question out of curiosity that i have: did you notice anything in your dreaming?
Hey jusuf please do a video on what to do when you're bored/ quarantine productivity
I AM DOING NOTHING RIGHT NOW JUST WATCHING JUSUF DOING SOMETHING HAAA
your editing is so cool and your videos are so calming😍😍
btw small youtuber here👋

prioritise your mental health and stay strong
@@Jusufreinhard ty for your words but istg i used to actually pray for my success (good grades sadly) at the expense of my mental and physical health, my wish came true but i felt like im going insane and cried for weeks for no absolute reason + my asthma got worse, i thought that being a very good student is everything and i just need to work myself a bit too much so that i can enjoy life and stay happy, but none of this happened, its been a very hard journey but im trying my best to get through it.
I MISS YOU
I'm doing this tomorrow 😊😊
basically what im doing everyday since corona lockdown
UwU new video 🤩💕
