Is the 24/7 news cycle draining your energy?
In this episode of Wellbeing Interrupted, I share what changed for me when I stopped watching the news—and how it’s supported my healing in ways I didn’t expect.
Discussing an article from Mayo Clinic and my own lived experience with MS and Stage 4 breast cancer, I talk about the toll that constant noise, images, and updates can take on our nervous systems—and what we can do instead.
I also issue a gentle challenge to you this week: let’s both turn down the noise, even just a little, and create more space for healing.
