Social media is going through a change. The ‘gram seems to be evolving. From listening and learning to the black squares that “
healed racism”, there has been a shift of people seemingly wanting to be more conscious.
In this period of enlightenment, daily affirmations and mantras have permeated the Instagram zeitgeist in a unique way. Lunch pics and selfies still remain in the stories, but now exist between something deeper, something that signals a connection with one's higher self. You know, ~ vibes~.
Whether it is Bella Hadid sharing a slideshow of 5 Things You Should Hear Today or Precious Lee captioning a photo, “Affirmation Tuesday: I am abundant,” self affirming language and content have become a welcomed addition in the social media space.
