3rd Ave Wellness Podcast

Doomscrolling Is Draining You. Here’s the Way Out.

Are you caught in the doomscrolling spiral—overwhelmed by the news, constantly checking your phone, and feeling more exhausted by the minute?   This episode of the 3rd Ave Wellness Podcast offers a powerful, trauma-informed meditation to help you interrupt the cycle and return to yourself. Whether you’re struggling to disconnect from digital overwhelm or just need space to breathe, this practice is here to guide you gently back to safety, clarity, and belonging.   We explore how doomscrolling impacts the nervous system, especially for marginalized folks who are already carrying so much—and offer grounding breathwork, affirmations, and a somatic reset. You’ll leave with more access to your breath, your body, and your boundaries.   This meditation centers Black women, queer, trans, disabled, and chronically online folks—and is open to all who long for grounded hope in the chaos. I decided to not add any background music to help this be less stimulating as we break from overstimulation! Tell me what you think.       Want more support?

This is not hope rooted in false positivity or toxic resilience. It's hope rooted in clarity, grief, and resistance.

Soft Yet Unbreakable: Strong Boundaries Soft Heart

In a world that often demands hardness and isolation, this meditation is a call to honor the gift of our softness. This is serious work—learning to protect ourselves and set stronger boundaries without letting go of our curiosity, our love, and our inner child. We have a duty to become stronger and wiser while staying true to the tenderness that makes us whole. Join me as we find the balance of being soft yet strong, fierce yet gentle. Let’s reject callousness, embrace our resilience, and nurture the gift of staying open and connected. background track Composed by Magnus Ringblom Thank you for listening! 🌿 If this meditation brought you peace, please consider rating and reviewing it to help others find it too.
