Why We’re All Trying to Scroll Less (and Why It Feels So Hard)

For the first time ever, “reduced screen time / social media” topped losing weight and Dry January as the #1 New Year’s resolution. This is a signal that our minds need help. In this episode of Sufferless with a Part-Time Monk, Tim Tamashiro offers a compassionate look at why so many of us are trying to scroll less, and why it feels so uncomfortable when we do. This isn’t about willpower or self-control. It’s about an outdated brain reacting exactly as it was designed to in a world of infinite feeds and constant stimulation. Through a relatable story and clear, everyday brain science, Tim gently reframes restlessness, boredom, and the urge to check your phone as normal responses, not personal failures. If you’re feeling tech fatigue or digital overwhelm, this episode meets you where you are and shows you a kinder way to understand your mind and move toward more peace.
