I Took a Week Off Instagram and Here’s What Happened

January 6, 2019 By Melanie No Comments

Instagram DetoxHellooo world! After a week off Instagram, I’m coming back feeling refreshed and with a new perspective. I know a week may not seem long but in the world of social media, it’s basically an eternity. In fact, it’s the longest I’ve ever taken a break from the social media platform since the inception of my blog… even when I was still working a 9-5 job. I almost forgot what it felt like to go to a yoga class, eat avocado toast, and open my mail without documenting it. Geesh. That sounds a bit sad. lol 

The truth is, Instagram has been such an integral part of my life for nearly three years that it seemed so strange to operate without it. I had to physically move the Instagram app to the back of my phone because muscle memory had me instantly clicking to open it whenever the phone was in my hand. (IG was replaced with Classpass and I can’t tell you how many times I accidentally opened that app.) A few accidental clicks aside, I found myself to be more productive and hyper focused on the other aspects of both my personal and professional life. 

Full disclosure, I did end up going on Instagram a few times during my detox period to answer some urgent DMs but I promise, it was quick. 

Here are some key learnings and intentions that came from this little Instagram detox: 

  • Learning: I didn’t really miss seeing other people’s posts. I mean, yes, I was curious to know what some of my friends were up to but I was also okay to meet with people in real life to catch up on their lives or chat with them on the phone instead of scrolling. 
    • Intention: Spend less time endlessly scrolling. Spend more time connecting in real life. 
  • Learning: It feels pretty good to do things without documenting them 
    • Intention: Be more purposeful and intentional about what you share. If it doesn’t 100% align with your brand and audience, its okay to keep it to yourself. 
  • Learning: You’re far more productive when you’re not reaching for your phone every 5 minutes 
    • Intention: Stop allowing Instagram to distract you. Set specific times for various tasks on Instagram, including when to post and when to engage.
  • Learning: People have enough posts to keep them busy. Your week away might feel long for you but they might not even have noticed you were gone. 
    • Intention: Don’t tie your worth to your posts, “likes” or comments that roll in. Post because you have something to say, not because you feel like you have to. 

During my little break up with Instagram, I was able to square away some of the more important wedding details, like hotels and our wedding website. I tried out a new class at WOOM Center with my friend Alex. I had two photoshoots, one impromptu with Wini and another planned with my friend Brittany. My promo codes were organized so that I can share all of them with you guys on my Instagram Stories for easy access. My mailing list was cleaned up and I even created a fun new landing page to make signing up easier. I drank green juice, ate avocado toast, answered lots of emails, watched “You” on Netflix, chatted with girlfriends and basically did what I always do. 

But one of the biggest things I worked on is something I’m super excited and proud of. 

My very first e-book, the Insta STAR(ter) Kit

(A little rough sneak peek below)

I guess it’s kind of ironic that I wrote about Instagram Strategy during my time away from Instagram. lol  But it’s been something I’ve been wanting to do for the past month and I finally sat down to make it happen.

After multiple requests from other bloggers and followers who are looking to enhance their Instagram presence, I’ve decided it was time to expand my services past one-on-one blogger consultations. This guide is easy to read and covers the basic fundamentals of Instagram strategy, my go-to tips on building your brand, and most importantly — how to make your content stand out in the crowded space. I’m planning on this being my first edition, one that’s very tailored to new content creators. 

It won’t dive deep into the specifics of content creation or monetization, because the first step is building a solid foundation. If all goes well, there will be more editions to follow that will take a closer look at the things I just mentioned. 🙂

The e-book will be available soon so if you’re interested in being the first to know when it’s live be sure to sign up for my mailing list HERE.  

I’m happy to say, 2019 is off to a pretty stellar start. I’m ready to dive right back into my daily posts with purpose and share some really fun things that are happening within the next month. Be on the lookout for an Instagram Story takeover, a giveaway with Lipton Tea, potentially TWO free workouts with me in NYC, and lots of snaps from my upcoming yoga retreat in Joshua Tree, California. OH and my very first Instagram LIVE that will be answering all your branding/influencer related questions next week! 

Thank you all for being so supportive. I’m looking forward to a fun year ahead!

It may be winter outside, but I'm channeling all the Spring vibes indoors! 💐 Unfortunately I can't trick my dry skin into acting like it's not winter, which means my entire skincare routine is focused on being gentle, nourishing and hydrating. 🥰 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You all know how much I've been loving the @yesto Avocado collection and the #yesto Daily Cream Cleanser is truly one of the biggest stars for me. 🥑I love how creamy and rich the lather is! Plus it's fragrance-free, cruelty-free and made from 95% natural ingredients (including avocado oil)! 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Definitely recommend adding this to your winter skincare must haves. #yestoambassador Shop it now at @ultabeauty 🎉💕

Happiness can be found in the simplest of things:

Happiness can be found in the simplest of things:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
☀️ Sunshine and “Spring” weather after weeks of winter gloom 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🐶 The enthusiastic way a dog greets you after you’ve only left your home for 5 min 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🪴 Watching a new baby leaf pop up in a plant 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
☕️ The mesmerizing way milk mixes with espresso to form an iced latte 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🧘🏻‍♀️ Feeling so strong during a workout that you catch yourself smiling because you’re actually having fun 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🍪 The smell of freshly baked cookies 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🎶 When a song comes on that gives you ALL THE FEELS and transports you back in time 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
📖 That part in a good book that makes you stay up an extra hour because you just can’t put it down 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🤗 Texting a friend something random but their response just shows how much they “get you”
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🌈 And the knowledge that no matter how hard things may be, there will always be brighter days ahead
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Wishing you all a very happy Friday!! Thank you to @nutritionsqueezed and @morehealthyjoy for requesting to see Chip & Nina! 🐶 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And thank you to ALL of you who put in specific content requests this week. It was so fun letting you “takeover” my account! 💕 #MyHappyHome


What’s your go to healthy breakfast? 🍳 🍌🫐 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here are 6 of my personal favorites but the two I probably have on repeat are Greek yogurt and oatmeal. 🤪 Because let’s be real, they really only serve as vehicles for yummy toppings like chia jam, nut butter, caramelized bananas, granola, fresh fruit and sometimes if I’m feeling really dangerous... chocolate. 🥰 🍫 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Thanks to @camilikeatanktop, @astepfullofyou and @beaerdelyszky for requesting another art doodle. 🎨 Went back to colored pencils for this one! #BreakfastIdeas #ArtHour

Seasonal Affective Disorder (aka: SAD) is something I’ve struggled with off and on this winter. ❄️ 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There are all kinds of studies that share how plants have been known to increase productivity and provide an emotional boost... and although I can’t speak for anyone else, filling my home with these green beauties has 💯% helped me on mentally tough days. 🪴✨
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Bringing🌱 nature 🌱indoors is my way to cope with winter in the city and I’d love to hear if you do the same! Share your favorite houseplant. 💕

I've been taking two of these Vitamin D and Saffron filled gummies every morning and can honestly say they've been such an easy (and important) part of my morning routine. 👏🏻
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
They taste like a tropical dream (pineapple and orange) and I love that they support brain health + have major antioxidants. 🍊🍍I've linked them in my Stories if you'd like to try them out! #happyinsideout #sponsored

I'm always down to add a little more color and sunshine into my life, so you can bet I was super excited to try these NEW Hello Happy Gummy Worms from @ollywellness!! ☀️ 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Let me tell you -- these wiggly little Vitamin D and Saffron filled gummies are the TASTIEST vitamins I've ever had. 🥰 I've shared my journey with supplements before but here's something that I've found to be very true. When the vitamins I have taste good, I'm so much better at taking them regularly. 🍊🍍Anyone else relate? 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Alongside the gummy worms I'm also trying out OLLY's Sleep gummies which taste like blackberry and are filled with melatonin and botanicals to promote a more restful sleep. 💤 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I can't wait to take you on this journey with me! If you'd like to try them for yourself, you can find them at @target! Which one would you reach for? 🤔#happyinsideout #sponsored
