Welcome to News Hermit, a space dedicated to those who seek peace, clarity, and genuine connection in an age of constant noise and depressing news. Born from the realization that modern news consumption can be overwhelming and anxiety-inducing, News Hermit is more than just a choice to disconnect—it’s a movement toward choosing how you want to live.

I believe that staying informed about big things is important, but so is deciding when, where, and how to engage with the world. We cannot know our whole  vast world, but we can choose what we pay attention to. Stepping back from the urgency of daily news cycles and endless scrolling, we reclaim our time and energy for what truly matters: meaningful conversations, deep thinking, enjoying art and literature, and finding joy in life’s simple moments.

News Hermit isn’t about ignoring reality; it’s about choosing to engage with the world in a way that enriches your mind and nourishes your soul. Join me in discovering the freedom that comes from tuning out the noise and tuning into life.
