It's
been a long day at work and there's nothing more relaxing than watching that
program on TV. The program finishes and you think about going to the gym
or doing the laundry but there' something else interesting on. All of a
sudden it's midnight and you need to go to bed. Your evening has just
been sucked into the time vortex of TV.
Watching TV puts our brains in a relaxed, focused and suggestible state,
as if we are being hypnotised. That is
why you get the compulsion to buy that piece of junk you saw on TV even though
you know you don’t need it. Want to
reclaim the NOW?
Turn off the TV. NOW.
The news is depressing. That comedy isn’t really funny, you just
laugh because of the laughter track. All
TV shows are just give us insubstantial shadows and headaches.
If you want to learn something, you’ll get
more information from reading a book than by watching an ‘educational’
show. Do something that will make you
feel like you’ve achieved instead. Read
something, talk to a loved one (sitting in front of a flickering screen in the
same room does NOT count), build something, do anything to reclaim your life. NOW.
