deactivate account — internet vibes

Currently: Sitting in my office with all the windows open, listening to the rain outside + felt inspired to write. These are my thoughts today.

To purposely slow down is to save your life.

Going too fast, you miss things.

Life needs balance –

I had to slow it down, get offline a bit and breathe.

I needed to mentally cleanse…

Spiritually + physically cleanse as well — those two just take a bit longer and are more involved.

More on that later.

As an empath, the inner-g of the internet and social networking can very easily become overwhelming and can affect my well being.

When I notice a change or slip into an episode, getting off the internet for a while is key.

I then assess where I have been spending my online time, decide if the bulk of what I get out of this ‘place’ is helpful or not.

If it’s not helpful, then it has to go. I delete my account.

Once I’ve cleared all negative or problematic accounts, I remove myself totally from the online experience for at least a day or two.

Once I feel centered again, I venture back online to tend to my business or network.

Spiritually cleansing involves taking spiritual baths, prayer, fasting, candle work and a few other things.

Physical cleansing always involves yoga.

That’s basically how I (try to) stay balanced.

Not that things always go as planned because you know who laughs at our plans…

Be easy
