#TMI
Finding Peace In A World With Too Much Information
A practical guide to reclaiming your calm in a world drowning in notifications, headlines, and endless feeds — cutting through the noise to find what truly matters.
We live in the most information-rich era in human history. Every second, the internet generates more data than all the libraries of the ancient world combined. Your phone buzzes with notifications before you've had your morning coffee. The news cycle never stops. Social media never sleeps.
#TMI is about finding peace in that world. Not by retreating from it — that's neither practical nor desirable — but by learning to navigate it with intention, clarity, and a sense of what actually matters to you.
Drawing on neuroscience, philosophy, and practical experience, Gerald Shaffer offers a framework for what he calls the "information diet" — a conscious, deliberate approach to what you let into your mind, when, and how much. This is not a book about digital detox or going off-grid. It is a book about living fully in the modern world without being consumed by it.
Published by Shaffer Media in February 2025, #TMI has resonated with readers who feel overwhelmed by the pace of modern life and are looking for something more than platitudes — a real, workable approach to mental clarity in the digital age.
