Stop watching the news

 

Nowadays, news has become such a harmful information to us. We've been educated from child that who watches the news, is an educated person interested in the society and  person who doesn't is an ignorant person; so we have to know necessarily about what's happening in this world. But many recent researches, are mentioning that the news is actually not beneficial to our lives. And I will show you some of the reasons to this as why we don't need to stay informed, and how the news is toxic to our health and how it affects us mentally.

Sometimes, we feel belated when we are not being noticed of what is happening today or what will happen tomorrow, so we think that we have to be stayed up to date. But actually we don't have to, because news is something that we can't avoid, it means that in anyways we will be informed about the issue by other person of our social circle. So we don't need to waste our time on watching the news or reading all the information that appears when we open a website. Also when we watch the news we get so much irrelevant information that we think it will be much better if we just search for the information that we need.

   If we know relevant information from the news, people would consider us knowledgeable. But this information is actually toxic to our health, and it had been tested already. The continuous violent and panicky stories that we receive from the media, deregulates our immune system and inhibits the growth of hormones. In another word, our body stays in stress all the time. So this consecutive stress causes indigestion, nervousness and makes us susceptible to infections. Also the news works like a drug because it changes our brain structure; simply, it doesn't let the brain to focus deeply in one thing and makes the brain to consume new information before absorbing the last information completely. As a consequence, news brings us a kind of illness and extra stress to our body.

   The most important problem is the mental affection; the biggest one is the creation of the feelings of depression. This is because most of the news are depressive, so we are unconsciously consumed by the negative thoughts which in the future affects us also to our real lives. So how it affects us in our real lives? First, it interrupts our concentration; it happens when we bring back pieces of news that steals the attention of our own purposes. Therefore, affects severely to our memory because disrupts the information that we have stored in our brains. And as a result, it limits our creativity which comes from the thoroughness and a wide imagination, and these are some of the benefits that we have as a human being, but the interruption coming from the news makes us loose our great skill.

   Finally, I explained about the cause and effects of watching the news by explaining the unnecessity of being informed all the time, also the effects of our health and the mental problems that it brings to us. So I wanted to warn you that receiving mounts of news is not beneficial for us, but now I hope you to be able to realize what kind and what quantity of information from the news would be beneficial to you.
