When it comes to (anti) social Media, posters are competing for the exquisite attention grabbing quote that persuades the viewer to go to a summarised version of their content. If the poster is selling, then comes the sales funnel seducing us into the next added value purchase. No longer are we prepared to savour full content. In the mass of messages the average ‘consumer’ wants something that provokes them while they sit back and get ‘entertained’. I’m telling myself this is changing us. It’s certainly changed me and I am deeply reflecting on it.
Once a upon a time, entertainment wasn’t passive. Entertainment was participatory, community building, connection driven and Live.
As a Reiki Master, I understand something about vibrations and frequencies. To be in a room with live musicians, to be in an art gallery immersing into an original paining, to be playing games in person, to be in nature without devices is a communion that cannot be replicated digitally. Of course, the digital world opens doors to imagination that we might not have the chance to experience otherwise, yet it should not become a substitute for energetic connection.
Maria’s Midweek Mindfulness
Energy work is crucial and integral to the DRM consciousness so we can raise our vibrations and become aware of communal energy and its potency.
The Wednesday Whisper
When was the last time or did you ever tune in to your frequency and became aware of the vibrations around you?
