What is a lop RABBIT?
Lop rabbits are floppy-eared bundles of joy! Unlike some of our upright-eared cousins, our ears hang down softly beside our cheeks. There are lots of kinds of us - like Holland Lops, French Lops, and Mini Lops - and we come in all sorts of colors, sizes, and fluffiness levels. We're known for being extra gentle, super snuggly, and a little bit silly (we might accidentally trip over our own ears sometimes... oops). But even though we’re soft and sweet, we have a fierce passion for standing up for what’s right. That’s why Stop The Loop is going through a lot of new changes - because of us!
This is Tamar.
She created Stop the Loop because she wanted to offer something that could help others break free from toxic digital cycles. So, she designed some mental health products that serve as daily reminders that you're not alone and that you have the power to change your habits.
But why is everything so freaking expensive?
We get that she sourced the MOST comfortable materials and sharpest looking products for everyone to enjoy, but we’re kind of in a silent recession and people can barely afford groceries right now! So we’re in talks with her to see if we can get the prices lowered - and add more carrots to the inventory.
Stop the Lop still cares about the mission Tamar was bringing to light.
We know the main goal of Stop the Loop is to foster a community of people ready to break the cycle and live more intentionally. So Stop the Lop will continue to help spread that awareness while we try to make some changes in the meantime.
Thanks for being a part of this movement with us!
HeLLO!

Social media has been associated with various negative impacts on mental health. The constant exposure to carefully curated highlight reels of others' lives can lead to feelings of inadequacy, comparison, and low self-esteem. Additionally, the pressure to maintain a polished online persona can result in increased anxiety and stress. The addictive nature of social media, characterized by endless scrolling and notifications, can disrupt sleep patterns and contribute to feelings of isolation and loneliness. Furthermore, exposure to cyberbullying, misinformation, and unrealistic beauty standards can have detrimental effects on mental well-being.
Stop The Loop understands the harmful effects of excessive social media usage on mental health and aims to provide a solution. By offering tools and resources to promote digital well-being, Stop The Loop empowers individuals to take control of their online interactions and set healthy boundaries. Through educational content, personalized tips, and support communities, Stop The Loop encourages users to cultivate a more mindful and balanced relationship with social media. By fostering self-awareness and promoting positive online habits, we strive to mitigate the negative impact of social media on mental health and promote a more positive and fulfilling digital experience.
GET OFF YOUR PHONE AND GET ON WITH YOUR LIFE.
Excessive phone use, especially on social media, is a major cause of poor mental health in today's fast-paced digital world. Constantly seeing others' perfect lives and seeking validation online can make us feel inadequate, anxious, and lonely.
By using our phones less and distancing ourselves from social media, we can take back our mental well-being. Disconnecting from the virtual world lets us reconnect with ourselves, build real relationships, and do meaningful things. This helps us feel better about ourselves, be more productive, and live a happier life.
