Episode 3236: Kristine Klussman explores how intentional use of technology can help decompress, while numbing behaviors, such as mindless screen time, inhibit emotional connection and fulfillment. Recognizing and addressing these behaviors can lead to a more connected and fulfilling life. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.kristineklussman.com/numbing-vs-relaxing/ & https://www.kristineklussman.com/sleep-your-way-to-greater-connection/ Quotes to ponder: "When we are engaged in numbing behaviors, we are disconnected from ourselves emotionally, unaware of and unable to feel our real feelings." "Next time you feel that compelling urge to escape or numb a feeling, take a deep breath instead and ask yourself: 'What am I trying to avoid right now?'" "Resisting the urge to numb will help you to build mental muscle, to realize what a powerful force the 'urge' to escape reality is, and to gain a more profound and fulfilling level of connection to life."
