"Don't watch, read, or listen to news and feel how much your life improves"
Are you ready to take a break from the constant buzz of media and embrace a new way of thinking? In this episode of the Red Roof Recovery show, the host invites listeners to try a different kind of diet – a digital diet. With over 20 years of experience as a broadcast journalist, the host knows firsthand the impact of media on our minds and how it often leads us down unhealthy paths.
This episode challenges you to be the gatekeeper of your own mind, choosing light over darkness and surrounding yourself with positivity. Through a blend of anecdotes and catchy slogans, the host encourages you to take control by limiting exposure to negative media. A memorable mantra is introduced: "Don't watch, read, or listen to news and feel how much your life improves".
It's all about creating healthy habits that become second nature, using cognitive therapies and mindfulness practices to forge new pathways in the brain. The episode also touches on the importance of contemplating mortality and balancing life's books daily. Inspired by Tibetan rituals, the host shares a personal practice using the 'cup of life and death', reminding us to cherish each day as it comes.
It's a call to treat yourself with kindness and gratitude, just as you would your best friend. If you're looking for a refreshing perspective on mental health and recovery, this episode offers a unique approach that blends humour, wisdom, and practical advice. Tune in to discover how a media fast might just be the diet that truly works for you.
