Oh I feel a transformation coming on and I wonder what exciting idea you’ve been cultivating deep in the woods…? I totally relate to all of this Hannah, the world is so noisy and sometimes so utterly despairing. It feels so futile to be banging on about what I made and what I’m doing. I want real connections with compassion and empathy, to celebrate the beauty of humanity with real people. I want to chuck my phone into the sea, instead I’ve stepped back (not stopped completely) from social media and really tried to be a bit more present in my day to day. It’s a work in progress… 💚
I am feeling, that in person ‘real’ connections and small gatherings, that form mini communities, are going to become more and more desirable and important for the soul…more than ever…I’ve thought about ditching the phone too, but in a world now designed to function with technology I wonder if unhooking completely, could ironically, feel more disconnecting?…but I have deleted apps off my phone! 💚🌿
Yes. Another way I've heard it said is "making art is the antidote to doomscrolling." The way to let go of technology's tight hold is to relax, make art, go into the woods, etc.
