It’s only recently that Berna and I came across the word “doomscrolling.” We hadn’t heard it before, and had to look it up to see what it meant.
The Mayo Clinic defines doomscrolling as “The obsessive and unproductive consumption of negative information on social media.”
I guess I’m a bit out of touch with today’s world, or at least with social media.
Actually, though, “doomscrolling” is just a new word for what, in our opinion, is one of humanity’s worst habits–always expecting the worst.
Spirit
Well, indeed, people seem to love bad news. It is kind of addictive. All the so-called negative events are ‘poisoning’ the minds of people.
Especially in turbulent times with inner and outer wars, it is very important to be aware of who you really are. You are Love. You are God also.
Don’t listen to your ego. Don’t act upon its instructions. Ignore the negativity.
Don’t scroll down to doom. Scroll up to Love.
Love heals. Love is the highest power there is.
There is so much Love out there. You are Love. So let that out. Express the Love that you are.
As we have said many times over many years now, You are Goddess/God. It is that simple, that powerful. There is no greater truth in this Universe.
Make this a daily New Year’s resolution:
“Today I express the Love that I am. And I will listen to my inner guidance in whatever form that will be”.
The organization, Tomorrow’s World Viewpoint, created this short explanation of doomscrolling, and its effects on people’s mental health.
