It’s the end of the year and time to wrap up Season 2 of Carpe Diem Connections and the Joy Makeover. This week Becky Burns and I talk about the Love/Hate Relationship many people have with technology.
Though technology can be frustrating, I’m grateful that it allowed us to have virtual family gatherings throughout the Pandemic.
Ingrid Fetell Lee talks about 6 ways to use technology to cultivate joy and refers to her interview with Pamela Pavliscak, a futurist and designer who embraces a philosophy called positive technology.
With the New Year around the corner, you might want to check out Pamela’s suggestions for a year of positive technology with different themes each month.
The Joyspotters Society Facebook group is another great opportunity to experience social media at its finest. The posts are joyful, kind, and inspiring. So rather than “doomscrolling” why not do some “gleefreshing”? (For other new 2020 words, check out this quiz!)
We wrap up our podcast episode talking about the wonderful communities that are available that spread happiness, including ActionForHappiness.org.
This and other Websites that spread positivity can be found on the home page of this site, CarpeDiemDay.com.
Do you have a favorite Website, social media group, or app? Are there others you’d like featured on CarpeDiemDay.com? Join the discussion on the Carpe Diem Connections Facebook Group!
