How to stop scroll8ng the reels in phone

First of all let’s remember the disadvantages of scrolling reels throughout the day. It wastes our lot of time which we can utilise in our work and to make us better. It also makes mindset negative, as on social media we then compare with others, it also changes our opinions and makes us think about the things are not even important and things which make us sad after thinking. Our real life relationships, attention span, memory ability, creativity all of these deteriorates. Although it can be beneficial too but if in limit . But literally mindless scrolling can never be good.
So tips for limiting reels distraction is setting timer on the app and making commitment to yourself and others that you’ll not see more than the timer. You can deactivate instagram account time to time temporarily, that’ll reduce your scrolling time and also won’t cut off you from social media . You can also delete the app rather than deactivating, like make a goal I’ll download the app after one day or every day at night or whatever time you think is right and then delete it after spending some time on it. You can set reminders on another apps to remind you stop watching reels and doing your work. Also when you do something little like this, be grateful and celebrate that like if you delete the app for two days then you’ll treat yourself with something good. Also you can challenge someone or make a partner with you who’ll also do this. Happy day!

I placed a time limit for every app I tend to use too much. When the message comes, I don’t ask for more, because I related it with something addictive: the more you use it, the “best” you feel at the moment, and at the end you feel worse than when you started. I also learned to navigate my feelings, loneliness and anxiety by journaling or watching a long video or movie instead. And last but not least, I started giving myself rewards for everylittle achivement on self care, like I buy a pen or icecream, or let myself take a nap without guilt.

Hello there, first, set daily time limits or blocks on the app, move or hide the apps, turn off notifications, see why you scroll, do new activities (book, podcast…), be intentional with your usage (if you decide to see your friends messages or something important, turn off your phone after that, don’t be discouraged, refuse your phone and go do something instead of letting your phone control yourself, you can do it!
