Putting my phone in a drawer until I finish my cereal
I picked up this trick to stop mindless scrolling over breakfast. Now I actually taste my food, but I'm way behind on meme updates.

Karen361 has a point about the quiet moments. I like what vera_lewis2 does with the five minute rule after eating. I set a timer on my stove for that catch-up scroll so it doesn't slip into twenty minutes.

Oh totally, I do the drawer thing too! I give myself five minutes right after my cereal to catch up on the big meme accounts I follow. That way I get my fix but it doesn't eat up my whole morning.

That "five minute rule after eating" sounds good, but a timer on the stove is too easy to ignore. I use a loud timer on my phone and leave it across the room so I have to get up to turn it off. That's the only way my five minutes doesn't stretch.
