Throughout the month of November, I'm taking social media breaks to support the No So November movement. For No So November, you can take a day, a week, or a month break from social media platforms!
Technology and social networks can be used in positive ways, but as we all know, many profit-driven platforms aren't supporting our health. Taking a break gives your brain and spirit a rest from it all.
Although I made some exceptions this month (such as opening a sunny.garden Mastodon account, and creating a research account at the Center for Open Science), I've also taken break days without social media use. And I closed accounts I no longer use or need, so I feel I'm making progress!
I'll continue to take social media breaks throughout November! I hope you'll give a break a try, too! I want to add that it's not a competition, and you don't have to be perfect - just do your best and have fun challenging yourself with your break.
Your team or organization can also be involved. You can participate in the break (or continue to use socials, but support and uplift the No So November movement).
