In 2024, i have decided I quit social media. After having thought it over and over for a couple of years, I am finally taking this decision for my business and myself to go back OFFLINE whilst being online.
Going offline whilst being online, what a paradox you may say. Well, I work online, my clients are worldwide, some are in Europe, Switzerland, France, the UK, and some are in the US, or Canada, south america.
As my line of service in the holistic world has no boundaries, and energy or subconscious mind work can be done worldwide without being beside the person, this allows me to work online, and also in presence when I travel to various locations in a nomadic way, which I have been doing for the last 2 years now.
So why quit social media?
Prior to opening my channels and accessing these new skills and knowledge in the Healing & holistic world, I worked in multiple fields. The last one being a professional commercial & advertising photographer.
During 4 years, from 2016 to 2020, I had quit all social media presence, and this was one of the most refreshing periods of my life. Business was still growing, people were finding me through other means, by website, colleagues, friends, clients, or any other way which the universe decided to bring to me.
My partner fell ill in 2019, and contracted Cancer, from which she passed away in 2020. In January 2020, just before the pandemic, she needed a project, and felt that it was important for me to reconnect to social media, and she was the one to drive me back into them. I will certainly not place judgment as I agreed to it, and she took care of them for a few months, for my instagram account.
Since she passed in 2020, I have been considering the need for me of these social media platforms, how they worked for me, how I interacted with them, and how I felt dealing with managing them for myself. And I took some breaks, a few, during my travels.
Many friends with good intentions were reminding me of the importance of them, to which I still reacted by staying around… even though I could not feel, inside, the aspiration to continue to pursue what I call millenial madness.
Since 2020, over 70% increase in mental health consultations have been seen around the world, and that’s an understatement when I see how people are consuming to hide their fears and pain, may it be by consumerism, alcohol, drugs, spiritual bypassing, social media mass posting, and so many other ways.
Reconnecting to my values
I am an introvert, yet also an extrovert, shy and talkative, and within all this, I find myself way more drawn to deep conversations, taking people along a path of reconnecting to themselves, out of the social media realms.
It’s a real DETOX, a social media end for me, and for some a pause. it is essential to note that the addiction from these platforms fighting for our attention. From social media, instagram, facebook, tiktok, snapchat, vk, and all the thousands of others, adding the video platforms, gaming or discord servers, all fighting for our time, attention, driving us fully away from our consciousness.
I feel, in that space and time, that my place is elsewhere. Again, I totally see that some find their way in there, and am grateful to be in an era to see it, and see the passion they put into it. And when I look at my path, my challenges, and how I am exploring the world, the energies, consciousness, and guiding change for my clients, i’m more and more convinced… my place is off social media.
So now is the time, follow my vision, my path, and empower you by connecting to you, on a whole new level, sharing and creating what would be a rebellion state of 5D in our galactic world.
How am I going to communicate?
You can find me through my newsletter, and directly by Whatsapp or phone. And you’ll also get access to me through my retreats, workshops and open talks which you can take part in, they will be online via Zoom or alike platform. I am also preparing something in the likes of a podcast, to share more about the process and how this whole detox and mental health can be interconnected for a better life in a digital world.
in 2024, way More is going to change, as some have noticed, i’m doing a rebranding, so don’t be surprised if you suddenly find yourselves faced with “The fucked up Therapist” which i’ll be explaining in a soon to be published post with all the details behind it.
On my location, I am actually in Fuerteventura and in Switzerland, but my base was and is today fuerteventura. Will it change ? Most certainly too, changing, moving, evolving, heading elsewhere, in the path of evolution, how can I be the exploring me, inside and out, without playing my part in the fun of this adventure life is all about.
What’s next ?
Well, I have taken down Facebook, Linkedin & Instagram which were my 3 social media platforms, and I still use the text platforms of Whatsapp & Telegram with a whatsapp group allowing to inform people on what’s taking place, retreats, and events in fuerteventura, switzerland, and online.
