Answer:

I spent most of it pretty anxious. And every time I felt the unease of uncertainty bubble up, I found myself reaching for my phone.

Now, after a week of checking incessantly to see the latest headlines, vote tallies, reactions, messages, and memes, my body seems to have adapted to this addictive behavior.

For instance, this morning I picked up my phone to play some music but somehow found myself tapping open my news app. It took a minute or two of scrolling through the headlines before I remembered that I had initially picked up my phone for an entirely different reason.

After realizing this, it also became clear that I have been consuming more — in this case, news — in order to drown out my own thoughts and feelings.

So today I am taking some time to unplug from the news and reset my relationship with technology.

I am remembering to return to the present moment and making space for my emotions.

Every time I feel the urge or catch myself opening my phone’s news app, I will instead pop open my journal and answer a simple question: How are you feeling right now?

I am feeling a strong sense of relief right now, but I am also feeling so much more. There is a lot to unpack and process from the last week — and in many ways, from the last four years.

Join me and make time for your own thoughts and feelings today.

Wishing you many moments of reflection and calm,
