Why I Love YouTube

In a world filled with Instagram reels and TikTok videos, YouTube holds a special place in my heart. In the morning I use it to listen to guided meditation videos, and at night, I like to watch vlogs and cooking channels. For me, YouTube is like Netflix. It’s a place where I can grab a snack and a fun drink and relax watching a new video. While I still am consuming content, it’s much more relaxing for me to watch a 20 to 30 minute video than to get stuck doom scrolling on social media. Whether you’re looking for how-to videos, workouts, or just a cozy vlog, YouTube has it all. Here are some of my favorite channels:

If you’re looking to take a break from scrolling but you’re not quite ready to commit to watching a movie or reading a book, YouTube may just be the platform for you.
