With screens and social platforms everywhere, there's always room to choose presence over noise and keep your voice at the center. In this episode, Dr. Ishan Shivanand, renowned mental health expert, author, and founder of Yoga of Immortals, challenges us to rethink how much control we've handed over to technology.

With wisdom shaped by his years as a monk and global teacher, Dr. Ishan exposes how our phones, once simple tools, now quietly guide our thoughts, emotions, and attention, and why reclaiming that control matters more than ever.

Through grounded practices like mindfulness and meditation, Dr. Ishan reminds us that real happiness comes from tuning into ourselves, not chasing validation online.
