You’ve started consuming cannabis responsibly. You’ve adjusted your diet (if you haven’t yet, click here to explore the first step to becoming the Guru). You’re thinking more clearly. Now, it’s time to detox another part of your life: the news, media, and frequencies you consume.
The Power of What We Consume
The ancient wisdom of “not worshiping false idols” holds a deep truth. False idols aren’t limited to statues—they’re the celebrities, influencers, and public figures like Elon Musk, Donald Trump, Taylor Swift, or Cristiano Ronaldo. Admiration is one thing, but idolization? That’s where we give away our power.
Walking the path of the Guru means claiming your power. When you idolize or blindly follow anyone, you surrender your ability to think for yourself. This weakens your connection to your own truth. And the most insidious source of this surrender? The media we consume daily.
The Hypnotic Power of The Screens – TV and Social Media
TV and social media, while an incredible tools to inform, educate, and entertain, also have the power to shape our attitudes, behaviors, and perceptions of reality in ways we might not even notice. Scientific studies show that watching television or using social media induces an alpha brainwave state—a state of heightened receptivity and reduced mental barriers.
In this state, you are:
- Less able to critically evaluate information.
- More open to suggestions, even if they are manipulative or false.
- Primed for a hypnotic state where ideas can bypass your defenses.
Critical thinking—the ability to analyze information, question its truth, and make the best decisions—becomes dulled in an alpha state. Why would you willingly reduce your ability to make good choices for yourself and your loved ones?
Reclaiming Your Power
When you’re in an alpha state, you’re more likely to take the authority as your truth instead of making the truth your authority. That’s why it’s so important to wake up and become intentional about what you watch and listen to.
Here’s how to reclaim your power:
- Turn Off the Noise – Limit your exposure to TV news and sensational media.
- Seek Facts, Not Opinions – Focus on verified, factual information rather than emotionally charged opinions disguised as news.
- Question Everything – Ask yourself, “Does this make sense? Who benefits if I believe this?”
- Stay Grounded – Spend time in nature, meditate, or practice mindfulness to reconnect with your inner wisdom.
The journey of the Guru is about owning your mind and choices. Don’t let external frequencies control you. Consume with intention, not passivity. When you detox your media consumption, you’ll find more clarity, confidence, and connection with your authentic self.
Take back your power—and let the truth, not the noise, guide your path.
