How Being Selective, Positive and Creative Can Transform Your Social Media Experience
Join Brian Primack as he discusses his new book "You Are What You Click".
Internationally acclaimed behavioral scientist and social media expert Brian Primack, MD, PhD, believes we do not need to swear off social media, delete all our online accounts or give up our phones to live healthier, happier lives. In "You Are What You Click", he offers a new approach to digital wellness, and a realist's perspective on how what we consume online affects our well-being. In response, he presents a "social media pyramid" that personalizes our tech diet so we can enjoy a fruitful, balanced relationship with social media.
