Some of you may be thinking, why would she do this? Why would anyone do this? Others may totally be like, it's no big deal, I don't watch TV really anyway.
Reason: I think I will find better uses for my time, become more prolific with my poetry writing, have more time to study Reiki, and have more focus in general. Who needs TV? I can amuse myself. I guess we'll see if that's true.
Day 1: All day, I totally forgot that my plan was to avoid television for this month until my husband came home and asked me how it went. I was like huh? And then he reminded me that I said I was avoiding TV for the month. By happenstance, I had not watched TV all day anyway. This morning, I watched Johnny Jr paint, we played some Little Tikes Basketball, my parents visited, then my parents took Johnny Jr out for a while, and then I had free time to myself. I didn't even think of tv even when left to my own devices. I cleaned my car a little, went to the library and checked out some poetry books, and then practiced my Reiki on myself.
This Thursday, I took a class in Reiki and am not Reiki level 1. At this level, I am ethically bound to only use my Reiki energy to heal myself. The thinking is that one must heal thy self before having the energy and full capacity to heal others. This makes perfect sense to me. I plan on spending as much time as I need to balance all my energy, heal myself, and ready myself to heal the world. So, all this no TV time is going to give me lots more healing time, which is great.
Please feel free to post comments with other suggested activities for other readers who may want to try some new things instead of television. TV is just really going down the tubes anyway...
