18: 🤳🏼Love Your Body And Leave Instagram! The Sacredness Of (Your) Attention – with Amelia Hruby
Have you ever thought about leaving social media 🤖? How do you feel when you are on Instagram and what can you learn about your Self when you are off the grid?
In this episode, I have a very special guest ✨: Amelia Hruby is one of my most important business mentors and an expert on podcasting, running a successful business without social media and breaking free from limiting rules and outdated concepts.
📖 Amelia recently self-published her book Your Attention is Sacred Except on Social Media.
Amelia and I talk about our personal experiences with leaving Instagram and how being (not) on social media influences your nervous system, mood, energy levels, creative practices, and energetic capacity. We also explore the connection between alignment and attention and Amelia shares how you can cultivate your attention like a sacred garden 🌱.
🌸 Tune in and hear about:
How social media (subtly) manipulates your soul, body, nervous system, values, and believes
Practical tips to cultivate your attention like a sacred garden
Attachment styles and toxic relationships with social media
How algorithms separate you from your natural rhythms of creating
Instagram-awakenings, self-comparisonitis and the healing power of selfies
Why coke is sometimes healthier than green juice
This conversation is for everyone who feels icky on Instagram 🫥 AND the episode is for all rebels who want to liberate themselves from media manipulation and reclaim their agency.
