Ignore it and find something better to do with your time. Getting a new group of friends wouldnt be a poor idea if your current ones are gossipy.

Just avoid the gossip. If someone brings up a ‘gossipy’ topic, walk away or change the subject.

You have to make a conscious effort to stop.
Remind yourself that other people's business is their own. The same way you wouldn't want people talking behind your back, other people don't want that done about them either.
I really don't have any advice other than you have to make a big effort, these sorts of habits are really hard to break :frown:
