The Balance Between Being Informed and Low Vibe Consumption.

🔥

There is no shortage in out world of bad news, controversy, rage bait, misinformation, and propaganda. Media\Social Media all seem to be running a never ending contest to see who can upset and outrage the most people under the guise of "being informed." Social Media in particular seems to be competing for the best (meaning the worst) place to "doom scroll".

That said, it is good, and even necessary to be informed of some things. Since actual real information is sprinkled into the negative nonsense like bits of chicken in spoiled vegetable soup, getting informed without getting invaded is tricky. Discernment and careful selection matter. Nevertheless, even with care, information comes at a price, and that price tends to be contamination.

So first question is how do you stay informed and limit contaminated ideas? Second, what to you do to detox when those contaminants "get in"?
