Summary

In this episode of The Mindful Kind podcast, learn how to be more mindful when you're using social media!

I've shared two wonderful contributions from listeners @heartfeltjewellery and @sarah_dillman (on Instagram), who gave their own insights into how to use social media more mindfully.

My own tips include:

1. Really read quotes. Try writing down your favourite quotes in a blank notebook, such as the beautiful ones from Inspirationery (inspirationery.co)

2. Follow accounts you actually like! My favourite Instagram accounts include rebelandroam, photography_byron_bay, combardiselixirs, calm and thestrategylab.

3. Schedule social media breaks.

4. Avoid multi-tasking.

5. Know when to stop.

I hope you enjoy this episode and if you do, I would absolutely love to see your review on iTunes!
