How TV makes you passive

TV makes you passive

Our brain is more active while we sleep than when we watch TV. Over time what affect could this have on our mental functioning?

Television is commonly considered one of the most effective tools to pacify and subdue psyche ward patients and prison inmates around the world.

And if you’ve ever heard the phrase ‘veg out’ in front of the TV that’s exactly what we’re doing –while watching TV our brains have less activity than when we are asleep.

Researchers Kubey and Csikszentmihalyi found that for many people television elicits a conditioned relaxation response.

The sense of relaxation ends when the set is turned off, but the feelings of passivity and lowered alertness continue.

Survey participants commonly reflect that television has somehow absorbed or sucked out their energy, leaving them depleted.

Regular TV viewers can have their world view essentially mediated for them by television networks.

The job of the audience is to passively accept and absorb the point of view TV presents.

This results in a public with similar conditioning who in real life are more likely to accept the world view presented to them by others.

This begs the question – are our thoughts our own? And if not, whose are they?

Shortly, the public will be unable to reason or think for themselves. They’ll only be able to parrot the information they’ve been given on the previous night’s news.— Zbigniew Brzezinski

To live spiritually in the moment we need to be active, to see for ourselves how we and the world really are.

If you’ve ever tried to observe your thoughts and emotions you would have noticed that depression, anxiety, and other negative states come and go without any effort on our behalf, draining our energy as they go.

While watching TV this process happens on autopilot. The more time we spend passively absorbing entertainment rather than actively engaging in life, the more we train ourselves to watch rather than partake in our existence.

Without activity, our consciousness is less likely to manifest and the more difficult awakening becomes.
