Want to reduce your stress level? Stop watching the news!

I know, it's a meme in and of itself, but seriously, take a break from the news. Check the weather. Check traffic. And that's it. My neighbor is in panic mode, watches the news almost religiously (she flips between every network), and thinks the world is going to end shortly. It won't. Sit outside and watch the birds. Put on a nonsense show. But please, stop letting talking heads tell you to worry while also buying into their sponsors.
I made this decision about 3-4 years ago. Never regretted it. That’s why I resent news posts here that aren’t categorised properly and pollute my feed.

Completely agree with you. Take covid just as an example. If it were not for the news I wouldn't know it existed yet our present federal election is all about candidates outbidding each other on what draconian measures he will impose. I much prefer to take a walk by the river and listen to the birds chirp and smile at the strangers I meet along the way.

@hippyjoe1955 what? werent you the one who lost multiple relatives to covid?

@Londonn No the vax. Only lost one. The others are still alive and adapting to their very altered lifestyle. Can you imagine carrying around a colostomy bag for the rest of your life because the vax caused blood clots killed your bowel? Eww.

I watch the news everyday just to be updated on current events. I have never been stressed out or paranoid because of it. I'm just like dang that's sad that is happening.
