The Hidden Side of Social Media
🔍 In This Episode
We explore the Instagram Razor, a concept that reveals how influencers' perfect photos on social media are often selected from numerous less flattering ones and heavily edited. This curated perfection can distort our perception of reality, leading to unrealistic self-comparisons. By understanding the effort and selection process behind these images, we can develop a more critical and balanced view of social media content, focusing on our own journey and fostering mindfulness against unrealistic standards. Tune in to learn how to apply the Instagram Razor and navigate digital platforms with greater resilience.
