Samantha Asks Followers to Show Kindness on Social Media

For Samantha, authenticity is of utmost importance. She is known for fearlessly and confidently embracing her true self every now and then. Samantha recently turned cover star for Grazia magazine, making heads turn with her stylish appearances. She shared that a significant lesson she learned was the importance of showing the same kindness to herself that she offers to others. 

Elaborating further on the topic, Samantha said, “I try to keep it as real as possible, and I hope I’m doing a good enough job of that. I think that it’s important to be authentic on social media, along with taking those breaks and keeping a safe distance from it all.” 

Samantha, who was diagnosed with Myositis, an autoimmune condition, has been vocal in discussing her medical condition, much like she shares updates on her mental health and practices digital detox for overall well-being. Recently, Samantha had discussed her phone addiction and how she managed to break free from it. She shared this information on her health podcast, Take 20, with health coach Ryan Fernando, saying, “I couldn’t control this relationship with my phone, which I was starting to question again, and this false sense of importance that ‘It’s my work and it has to be done.’” 

As an attempt to work on the addiction, Samantha went on a silent retreat for three days, abstaining from phone use, communication, eye contact, reading, writing, and any form of stimulation, which she described as a “humbling experience.” Her main observation from the detox phase was, “So much of my ego is connected to my phone. Who I am, how important I am, what I have achieved, and when it isn’t there, you are just another living thing, like a worm, a bird. Nothing at all. Just going to live, you’re going to be born, live and die, as simple as that. Phone creates so much of an artificial existence for you.” 

Samantha, who was last seen in the Prime Video series Citadel: Honey Bunny with Varun Dhawan, is an avid supporter of a healthy lifestyle and often motivates her Instagram followers to adopt similar practices.
