Are you constantly falling prey to social media algorithms? Do you find yourself spending too much time scrolling through Instagram, watching one too many YouTube videos, and reading Threads and Tweets for hours on end?

The Yogis teach that we all are spirit and have tools for our expression. Our body and our mind. In the same way, we have more apps than ever at our fingertips. And they also allow us to express ourselves.

With the launch of Threads, Meta’s version of Twitter, we have yet another social media profile to keep up with, if we want to, of course. And so, it’s really easy to become overwhelmed.

These apps are amazing tools if used properly. But they are also addictive and you can easily find yourself spending more time than you should. Or caring too much about the validation you get from your ‘online’ friends.

The only thing we can do to protect ourselves from algorithms that are designed to keep us using the app and make us addicted is to work on ourselves. So that we have the discipline and discerning abilities to choose what's best for us and use those apps as tools.
