How to Practice
- Put your phone face-down or set it aside completely before starting.
- Sit upright and roll your shoulders back — counteract the hunched posture of screen use.
- Inhale through your nose for 4 seconds, feeling your posture naturally open as your chest expands.
- Exhale slowly through your nose for 6 seconds. Let go of any comparison or judgment.
- Repeat for 6–8 cycles. Notice how present-moment awareness returns as the digital noise fades.
如何练习
- 开始前将手机正面朝下放置或完全放在一边。
- 坐直，向后滚动肩膀——抵消使用屏幕时的驼背姿势。
- 用鼻腔吸气4秒，感受随胸部扩张而自然打开的姿势。
- 用鼻腔缓慢呼气6秒。放下任何比较或评判。
- 重复6–8个循环。注意随数字噪音消退，当下时刻的觉知如何回归。

Frequently Asked Questions
常见问题
Why does social media make me anxious? 为什么社交媒体让我感到焦虑？
Social media activates intermittent variable reward circuits (similar to slot machines), triggers social comparison, and creates FOMO. Each of these independently raises cortisol. Breathing helps reset the stress response they create.
社交媒体激活间歇性可变奖励回路（类似老虎机），触发社会比较，并制造错过恐惧。这些每一个都独立地提升皮质醇。呼吸有助于重置它们创造的压力反应。
