| Zusammenfassung: | "The media that capture our attention, mold our thoughts, and shape our expressions are the invisible information environments that surround us. The "Digital Age" has forced humanity to engage in daily prolonged immersion within specific media of thought that, over time, become toxic media environments and can result in a state of mental imbalance. As a process for achieving stability, practicing media mindfulness is not about disengaging, but rather having a deeper awareness of the media environments that we are immersed in-how they engage our attention, how they affect our thoughts and behaviors and, most importantly, how we can manage them to avoid their harmful effects. Simply changing one's media environment results in a new way of attending to information and even a shift in one's behavior and thought patterns. This book explains why our media environments are often toxic, the effects they can have on our mental health, and steps we can take in order to practice mindful, balanced, and healthy engagement with media environments. The specific focus of this practice is on managing the psychological effects of all media. Readers will learn how to manage their media environments for optimal mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual health with the aid of a simple mantra: Change your behaviors and your thoughts will follow."-- |
