When you control the inputs that you are taking in on a daily basis, you can rewire your brain to have a better, more uplifting, positive, happy, fulfilling life.
Imagine starting your day with a dose of positivity instead of a flood of negativity. In this episode of 'Mental Health News Radio', hosts Kristin Walker and Karl Stedman tackle the overwhelming presence of negative media in our lives and its detrimental impact on mental health. They share their personal journeys and the inception of PSTV, a platform dedicated to spreading positive news.
It all began with a simple text from Karl's mom, sparking the realization of how scarce uplifting news is in our daily consumption. With over 90% of media being negative, it's no wonder many struggle with mental well-being. Kristin and Karl dive into the science behind how negative media affects our brains, linking it to depression and even suicide. They question why we are so careful about our physical health yet allow our minds to be poisoned by constant negativity.
Their solution? Rewire your brain with positive inputs. Kristin passionately explains, 'When you control the inputs you take in daily, you can rewire your brain for a more uplifting, happy, and fulfilling life'. The conversation also highlights the critical role entrepreneurs play in promoting positive media. Karl points out that while ideas are plentiful, authentic execution is rare but essential for creating meaningful change.
Both hosts stress the importance of authenticity in creative projects and share their struggles with complex trauma, emphasizing the healing power of using one's voice for positive change. The episode wraps up with a call-to-action, urging listeners to support positive media ventures and take control of what they consume. As Karl puts it, 'Without support from organizations, we couldn't stay on the air'.
This episode leaves you feeling inspired and hopeful about the transformative power of positive news on mental health.
