Selena knows best! A source has revealed exclusively to Life & Style that Selena Gomez is doing everything she can to stay positive post-rehab… and that includes an Instagram cleanse.

While the 26-year-old’s fans would love to see her back on the ‘Gram, Selena knows it’s not a healthy place for her right now, especially with her ex Justin Bieber and his wife, Hailey Baldwin, constantly sharing snapshots of their newly wedded bliss

“The fact that Justin and Hailey are married still hits a raw nerve,” the source explained. “But she’s dealing with it and has taken a break from social media to avoid seeing loved-up posts of them together.” We hear that, girl.

So, what is Selena focusing on instead? Well, as it happens, she’s doing what she does best — music! “Being creative and making music are lifelong passions that help Selena express herself,” the source continued. “She’s writing again and has just put some last-minute finishing touches to her new album which is ready to drop!” Yas! We absolutely cannot wait to hear some new Selena tunes.

Despite the fact that this year has been particularly difficult for the pop star — Selena was hospitalized in October after suffering from an emotional breakdown — the source noted that she’s ready for what’s to come.

“Selena’s looking forward to putting 2018 behind her and starting fresh. We’ll be seeing a lot more of in the new year!” How exciting, y’all. Thankfully, we’ve already got a small taste of ~the new and improved~ Selena. On Nov. 28, her latest interview with Elle dropped, and TBH, she’s truly an inspiration to young women everywhere.

“I want to encourage women. I really would love to use my platform for good, and along the way have so much fun with movies and the music. I wouldn’t be able to do any of it if it weren’t for the people that supported me, and that kind of sounds like a cliché, but it’s true,” Selena mused to the publication. Thanks for teaching us that things can always get better, Selena. We’re all rooting for you.
