Reels are fun. Reels are fast. Reels are everywhere.
But what are they really doing to us?
Reel Life: How Reel Culture Shapes Habits, Minds, and Society takes readers inside the world of short-form videos to reveal how endless scrolling is quietly transforming attention, behaviour, emotions, and modern culture.
From dopamine-driven habits and shrinking attention spans to influencer culture and digital burnout, this book explains why reels are so addictive—and why stepping away feels harder than ever. It explores how short videos affect children, youth, adults, creators, and even public opinion, all while reshaping learning, relationships, and self-identity.
Inside this book, you’ll discover:
• Why our brains crave short videos
• How reel habits form without conscious choice
• The psychological impact of likes, views, and validation
• Effects of reel culture on mental health and self-esteem
• How reels influence education, business, and society
• Practical ways to build healthier digital habits
Written in a clear, engaging style, Reel Life doesn’t ask you to quit social media. Instead, it helps you understand it—so you can use it wisely rather than be controlled by it.
If you’ve ever opened an app “for just a minute” and lost an hour, this book is for you.
Scroll less. Think deeper. Live consciously.
