What is your relationship with media? As a media-oriented culture, many don't think twice about the flickering screens in banks, restaurants,salons and now at gas station pumps. In modern society, nearly every living room boasts a television larger than the family portrait, along with several more to enhance each bedroom. And, for convenience, most folks have a hefty array of media devices to fill in all the spaces in between. We compulsively turn on and tune in to the sounds, pictures and stories that emit from these frequency transmitters with very little consciousness. Yet, as our bodies and minds expand to harmonize with more refined states of consciousness, it is natural to want to align with resonant frequencies, and many times the information offered by the media broadcasters isn't compatible with who we truly are... with Love Consciousness. Instead of automatically filling your home and energy field with media, perhaps you pause and ask, "What truly resonates with me? What do I want to experience right now?" If you are bored and "need stimulation," be willing to discover what kind of activity might engage your body and senses to awaken. If you wish to "just relax and veg-out," then maybe sitting on the front porch watching the sunset is a blissful option. Start to pay attention to how you fill up the sacred spaces in which you place yourself and learn to make more mindful decisions about your allowance of media into your space. Though you may experience initial pangs of media withdrawal, your true self will thank you for doing so!

Thank you for the reminders. My hammock on my lanai is my disconnect from media and I enjoy it at least once a day if not multiple times. I once heard that a swing is an anti-gravity dream machine and that is what my hammock is for me. ;)

I raised our kids without a TV, and - truly - one major space that "filled" their time was their time in nature! And, recently one of my daughters (now an adult) has been longing for our own hammock. :-)
