By Jane Johnston

In today’s fast-paced world, it is easy to find ourselves inadvertently trapped in a cycle of social media addiction and sugar addiction, which often exacerbates anxiety. Are you living life on your terms, or are you being controlled by these modern addictions /distractions? This is a call to action for anyone battling with these issues to reclaim their life through mindfulness and achieving anxiety relief. See Control the Scroll®️

Mindfulness: The Pathway to Conscious Living

Becoming more mindful is the first step towards breaking free from these chains. By practising mindfulness, we can enhance our focus, reduce stress, and gain control over our impulses. Are you ready to start your journey towards conscious living? Begin by dedicating a few minutes each day to mindfulness exercises, and notice how it transforms your mental clarity and emotional well-being. Presence practices are key then Mindset coaching is extremely helpful and working subconsciously (hypnotherapy) can rid these addictions easily

Navigating Social Media Addiction.

The pull of social media is real—and relentless. That compulsion to check our phones, compare ourselves, or escape boredom through scrolling creates a constant hum of distraction and disconnection. Ask yourself honestly: would you rather be present in your real life, or trapped in the curated highlight reels of others?

Try these practical tips to regain control:

Set long, complicated passwords for your apps
Switch your screen to greyscale
Set daily app timers
Turn off notifications
Buy an old-fashioned alarm clock and keep your phone out of the bedroom

More than just rules, these are boundaries that honour your time and mental clarity. Replace screen time with green time—get outside. Connect to community. Dive into creativity, music, learning, and art. These are the things that nourish your nervous system and build resilience.

Breaking Free from Sugar Addiction

Sugar often masquerades as a harmless treat, but its effects on our mood, hormones, and anxiety can be huge. That mid-afternoon slump? The racing thoughts at night? It could be blood sugar swings.

Start small. Replace sugary snacks with whole-food alternatives. Hydrate. Eat more protein. Observe how your energy stabilises and your mind feels calmer when your diet supports your nervous system rather than spikes it.

Create a simple morning ritual: no socials, no sugar—just breath, light, and intention. Start every day a better way.

Take Positive Action for Anxiety Relief

It’s time to prioritise your mental health and take conscious steps toward a more balanced lifestyle. If you’re struggling, reach out. You don’t have to do it alone. Support is powerful—and often essential—especially when healing anxiety, trauma, and ingrained addiction cycles.

Change starts with a single decision. Maybe today it’s turning off your phone for the first hour of the day. Maybe it’s choosing a walk instead of a scroll. These moments matter.
