Taking a break from media usage
Comment
Very synchronistic for me. I'm going through a fast myself for the last 2 days mostly mental detoxification. I'm taking a break from smart phone usage. The last 2 days I spent without watching YouTube or any other media or messaging. This alone has a huge impact mainly because I was abusing it for long periods of time. What I'm noticing is that the mind is still active, but there is more clarity when the judgement arises seeing it as distortions thus detaching from it. This has led to greater sense of sovereignty and freedom. I actually lost my phone charger, so that's what initiated it. I'm seeing signs of warrior and feeling more determination in the path. Its been actually very long I have done any kind of fasting. What was I waiting for? Today a situation arose where I had to say no and express my limitation to a family member in the face of potential judgement. And I realized afterwards I was only judging myself and its OK to express my truth. I'm going for 10 day vipasana retreat and I'm so looking forward for intense detox there. Take care fellow travellers. ![]()
