Ever pick up your phone just to check one thing… and suddenly 20 minutes have disappeared? You’re not alone. Scrolling is designed to keep us hooked—but instead of feeling relaxed, we end up more drained, distracted, and overstimulated.
In today’s episode, we’re talking about what all that screen time is actually doing to your brain, why it leaves you feeling exhausted instead of rested, and how knitting can be the antidote you didn’t even know you needed. If you’ve been wanting to cut down on mindless scrolling but don’t know where to start, this episode is for you!
In This Episode, You’ll Learn:
• Why scrolling is so addictive (and why it drains your energy)
• How knitting helps you focus, relax, and feel more present
• A simple challenge to replace screen time with knitting in a way that actually sticks
