Instagram is a tricky place. It is a place where both white lies and great talent sells. A place where you are trolled for telling the truth and backed up for the sugar-coated lies. Social media is certainly a mixed bag.

Cut to 2020, as if the pandemic was not sufficient to make most of us feel depressed; seeing ordinary people turn into extraordinary chefs and seeing the ultra-rich party in the Maldives made most of us go through a major FOMO.

The truth is, you cannot ignore what’s there on Instagram. All you can do is opt for the right kind of content.

Social Anagram brings you 5 accounts which you should follow on Instagram to add that extra dose of positivity and motivation in your daily life.

Harnaam Kaur (harnaamkaur)

Harnaam is breaking gender stereotypes across the globe; like any other girl, she has suffered from PCOS and tried every second thing to get rid of the unwanted facial hair but, in the end, she would face nothing but disappointment. She turned the tables when she decided to accept herself and build a positive life around it.

Harnaam has spoken in the House of Parliament, been part of TEDx talks, been featured in various publications globally and much more. She is everything one can be, a positivity warrior, motivational speaker, model, world record holder and activist. She is exact opposite of”damsel in distress”

Poonam Sapra (motherwithsign)

She is Instagram’s most popular mommy. While you may turn deaf to your at-home mom, you cannot ignore her.

She will not only remind you to call back your mom but will also tell you it’s okay when you feel a tsunami of emotions. 

What’s even cooler is her Instagram bio which reads, If your parents tell you about Sharma ji’s son, tell them about @pranavsapra‘s mom.

Sakshi Sindwani (Stylemeupwithsakshi)

Sakshi Sindwani is everything positive and fashion. This girl will make you fall in love with yourself. At 25, she has walked the ramp for Lakme India, collaborated with Nykaa, been on magazine covers and whatnot. 

She talks about her journey with full honesty and doesn’t hide the greys. Being a plus-size model herself she has redefined the word “self-love”. She is the ray of hope for people who have been prey to self-doubt.

Certainly, we all can learn a thing or two from Sakshi!

Vex king (Vexking)

Vex King, is a mind coach and author of the book Good Vibes, Good Life. The best part about his account is, his thoughts are not made up but are derived from his own life experiences which makes you connect with him instantly.  

Aakriti Rana (aakritiranaofficial)

I have been following Aakriti from her “Pretty Little Things” days, and one thing I can assure is she has grown as a blogger and as a person. Her feed is not only about travel and fashion; it is more than that. She makes a real effort to keep in touch with her followers and share her real life experiences on her Instagram and Youtube channel.

Being an avid reader, Aakriti time and again recommend books to her Instagram fam (an add on to her colourful feed).

She has spoken openly about her life, her divorce and much more . The transparency is a proof of the fact that people change and so does certain relationships. It’s a reminder of the fact that you need not feel guilty about putting yourself first in this chaotic world.

While you cannot ignore social media, for long, you can surely turn the mindless scrolling into something more positive and impactful?

Happy Insta Stalking!!
