New Term “Feedxiety” Puts a Name to the Everyday Stress of Scrolling–and One Expert Says There’s a Simple Way Out

BOSTON, April 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — With newsfeeds packed with political tension, online arguments, and anxiety-inducing headlines, just opening your favorite app can feel emotionally exhausting. Now, performance expert and author Doug Fleener has coined a term that perfectly describes the experience: Feedxiety.

 “Feedxiety is the low-level tension people feel when scrolling through their feed—never knowing what emotional curveball is coming next,” says Fleener. “It’s not just screen time. It’s how much pressure, fear, and reactivity we absorb without realizing it.”

To help people break the cycle, Fleener created Peace in a Chaotic World, a 28-minute “Instant Impact” course that teaches five practical tools for reclaiming personal peace, clarity, and ease—without needing to delete apps, meditate, or escape to a cabin in the woods.

Designed for action-oriented adults navigating modern stress—Peace in a Chaotic World offers a fast, no-fluff way to stop letting digital noise hijack your focus, energy, or mood.

 “We don’t need another life hack,” Fleener explains. “We need simple, actionable ways to feel grounded inside the chaos. That’s what this course delivers—tools that work, even when your day doesn’t.”

Doug Fleener is the author of The Day Makes the Year (Makes a Life) and creator of the Peace is the Day project. He’s spoken to tens of thousands of people worldwide about performance, peace, and personal growth.

Peace in a Chaotic World is available now at www.peaceinachaoticworld.com for just $27.
