			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p><strong>Imagine</strong> looking out over a trail or lake and seeing only the earth, trees, the winged ones and four-leggeds. No man-made obstructions. No advertisements on land or in the sky. Yes, no planes with trailers and no helicopters spraying insecticides or pesticides.</p>
<p>Now, imagine that you can actually create, at least, a portion of this scene in your world. How would you do this?</p>
<ol>
<li>Some take a <strong>vacation from the media</strong>. Some have given away their tv(s) and others simply decide to have ‘NO TV’ days. A client of mine gave up all media (including news in any form) for a month and reported that he felt more relaxed and ‘free’. He felt so much better that he extended his open time another month.<strong><br />
Try it as an experiment </strong>- see what arises for you.</li>
<li>Then try another experiment if you like ~ one day turn your attention to the <strong>sounds in your world</strong>. Do this, first, without changing anything. Just notice. Become aware of the effect upon you. Next try a comparison ~ go somewhere in nature, pay attention to just sounds. see how these sounds affect you.</li>
<li>What can you ‘give up’ to gain more of your own life back?Would you add anything?</li>
</ol>
<p>Next time:  Intuition</p>
