Skip the doomscrolling!
Laura DeMaria
You can listen to my interview from this morning here. The topic? Prayerful alternatives to before-bedtime doomscrolling. A few takeaways:
Put down the phone, pick up the beads. Rosary beads, of course.
Give yourself space for an evening examination of conscience (“the examen”).
Swap out mindless news feed reading for listening to a homily or reading an edifying book or passage from the Bible.
Or - just go to sleep! You can do that. I give you permission.
This is a great topic to take into Lent, too. Giving up doomscrolling is a wonderful Lenten plan. Do you know what you’re “doing” for Lent yet?
Enjoy the conversation!
