Hybrid Doomscrolling Detox: Find Balance in the Digital Age

A Health and Wellness Program

Get connected to all types of health and wellness needs, including information, resources, services and experiences. 

From the advent of the internet to recent developments in artificial intelligence, the digital revolution continues to remake our world. While many of the changes have been positive, these innovations have also left many of us trapped in filter bubbles, overloaded with information, mistrustful, anxious, and polarized.

Lifelong journalist and media educator T. Andrew Wahl breaks down the key developments that have led to our current information landscape and, more importantly, offers concrete tips to help attendees develop a healthier relationship with their information diet.
