Description: Recent world events have been difficult to process and watching the news during these times can take a toll on us. When major world situations are taking place, we can find ourselves hooked on the news and feeling as though we need to know everything, but this behaviour, known as doomscrolling can be detrimental to our physical and mental health and severely affect our everyday life. We now have news at our fingertips all day, every day and unsurprisingly, it's not good for you. If you have identified that engaging with a lot of news is not benefiting your well-being, it might be time to consider reducing or altering the ways you consume it and that, along with ways of cultivating calm, is what we are tackling on todays show.  Here are the links to the quick meditations Lauren mentioned on the show from the podcast Ten Percent Happier with Dan Harris "A walking meditation" - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/learn-basic-walking-meditation-from-a-master-bonus/id1087147821?i=1000632162396 "A meditation for when you badly need to calm down"https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/a-meditation-for-when-you-badly-need-to-calm-down/id1087147821?i=1000627347955 If you like what we do here and want to be part of the club, come follow us at all our channels  For our exclusive merch - https://self-care-club.myspreadshop.co.uk/ Join our private facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/1115099072702743/?ref=share_group_link Instagram https://www.instagram.com/selfcareclubpod/ YouTube https://youtube.com/c/SelfCareClub TikTok https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMLnXyS1S/ Email hello@theselfcareclub.co.uk  Website www.theselfcareclub.co.uk Studio production by @launchpodstudios Music by purpleplanet.com Learn more about your ad choices.
