It feels like we’re living in two worlds right now — one made of screens, algorithms, artificial intelligence, and airbrushed humans and one that’s deeply human, made of touch, emotion, connection, and real life.

AI can be useful, even amazing. It can help us organize, learn, and create. But it can also pull us away from what’s real — our bodies, nature, each other, real connections, and intuition.

At Nontoxic Babe, I’m committed to keeping it real. I use technology where it helps, but I’ll never trade authenticity for automation. This space will always be about true health, real food, natural healing, and honest connection.

Because in a world that’s becoming more artificial by the day, being real is the most radical thing we can do.

How to Stay Grounded and Authentic in an AI World

Here are some simple, soul-nourishing ways to stay connected to your humanity, your community, and your inner peace.

Get Outside — Often

Nature instantly reconnects us with reality. Go for a walk. Sit under a tree. Camp, hike, garden, or just step barefoot into the grass. See what’s going on in the real world, the natural world is amazing.

Your nervous system needs real sunlight, real dirt, real air — not blue light and recycled oxygen from indoor spaces.

Read Paper Books

There’s something about holding a book, turning the pages, and slowing down your mind that digital scrolling can’t touch.

Reach for an older book or a classic — something that’s stood the test of time. Those words carry wisdom and heart that algorithms can’t replicate.

Listen to “Old” Music

Music shapes our energy. Modern pop is often engineered for quick dopamine hits — not depth.

Try listening to classical, jazz, old soul, or acoustic music. Let it feel like something. Music with emotion keeps your heart open and your nervous system calm.

Create with Your Hands

Sewing, baking, cooking, painting, crafting, even tending to plants — all of it is medicine for overstimulated minds.

Creating something tangible reconnects you with your body and brings satisfaction that a screen never will.

Have Real Conversations

Texting and DMs are convenient, but they lack the warmth of eye contact, laughter, or a shared silence.

Call a friend. Meet for coffee. Talk about what’s real — your feelings, dreams, struggles.

We were never meant to live in isolation.

Move Your Body Every Day

Movement clears static energy and grounds you in the present moment.

Dance, stretch, walk, or do yoga — whatever feels natural.

Your body is your original technology. Use it.

Limit Your Screen Time Intentionally

You don’t have to go off-grid to stay grounded — but you do have to choose when and how you connect.

Set limits, unfollow accounts that drain you, and fill that space with something real — journaling, nature, stillness, or connection.

Stay Curious and Present

AI can predict patterns, but it can’t replicate wonder, creativity, or soul. Stay curious. Ask deep questions. Think for yourself.

Don’t just consume information — contemplate it.
