The news and social media can cause tons of anxiety and stress when they consistently report on the many terrible things happening all of the time.

It doesn’t mean they’re not important, it’s just that it’s ok to take a break.

Sometimes people need that break from the eternal flow of news and social media so that their mental health isn’t impacted and so there is time to process what’s going on.
