Not everyone deserves to know the real you. They really don’t, especially on social media platforms.
Yet a core component of health is to feel seen and heard.
This level of relatability is only available through vulnerability 💯. There is no option to edit vulnerability.
Vulnerability requires intimacy.
Which you could also para phrase as “In-to-me-see!”
I created Real Talk forum in 2019 as a safe space to be real with one another . This is a forum for all Naturo Clinic communications and the RN-Cleanse videos. It’s my responsibility to safeguard RealTalk and I take this very seriously.
Safeguarding Yourself Online
Being authentic about your wants, needs, and desires is vital for health, especially in the context of intimacy—emotional closeness with others—rather than oversharing on social media.
Here are some pointers:
- Mental Peace: Recognise your need for genuine connection, not just likes or comments, to reduce inner turmoil. Constantly curating a fake online self breeds stress and anxiety, draining mental energy. If you are struggling to make connections, why not consider a Cleanse to first connect you self and then others.
- Emotional Strength: Voicing your true feelings to trusted people in a closed group such as in the RN-Cleanse, instead of broadcasting them on socials, builds self-esteem. Oversharing can leave you vulnerable to judgment, weakening emotional resilience.
- Physical Well-Being: Chasing validation through comments can spike stress, leading to sleep issues or fatigue. Instead prioritise real intimacy—like a heartfelt talk—to meet deeper needs, easing physical tension. Find your local conscious women’s circle or mans circle if you are struggling to talk to friends or family. Check out resources for a group near you.
- Deeper Bonds: Sharing authentically with loved ones, not the public, fosters trust and closeness. Social media oversharing often dilutes intimacy, creating shallow ties and unspoken frustrations that strain health.
- Self-Awareness: Knowing what you crave—quiet support or real conversation—helps you avoid the trap of performative vulnerability online. This clarity steadies your mood and protects against emotional overload.
In essence, true intimacy beats the superficial buzz of social media. Oversharing can spike cortisol from constant scrutiny, harming immunity and heart health, while genuine connection soothes.
It’s about nurturing your core, not your feed.
