Summary
Today's Bonus Quote:
"As you progress you become less excited about collecting the melodrama of the daily news; for as you delve within yourself, you want less and less to feed your mind unnecessary images and thoughts that agitate it. You simplify what you talk about, what you watch and what you read. You find yourself drawn to new kinds of books, perhaps books written by those who speak from the quiet of meditation. They are invaluable in creating space in which your mind can become quiet also.
...
One can be a responsible citizen without allowing one's mind to be captured by the media and their need to create news" - Ram Dass, Journey of Awakening
Today's Bonus Practice:
So what we're not gon' do today is watch stuff that makes us feel bad. Just for today, turn off the news, turn off that one crime show... stop scrolling that IG account (and the comments!) that gives you anxiety. Sit with a Go(o)d book. Listen to Go(o)d music. Write in your journal. Take a walk. Our life stories have plenty of drama to cause that inner ruckus... we don't need to consume content that generate even more. STOP. Breathe. Smile. Love. I'm with you in this practice.
Beginning Aug 7, 2023 - 'GoOD Mornings with CurlyNikki' will host pre and post roll ads within the back catalogue.

| 0:56.4 | Like I never really liked, you know, blood and gore and zombie movies. |
| 1:03.4 | I watched those two, but I liked, you know, like psychological thrillers like the others |
| 1:09.9 | and the six sent movies like that. |
| 1:13.4 | Like loved, loved, loved those movies and I liked that adrenaline and the fear and |
| 1:20.3 | then I'd be scared for the rest of the night and like I just, I grew up that way. |
| 1:24.8 | It's my favorite thing. |
| 1:26.0 | And I see there's still a part of me that I believe would enjoy a horror movie, but I |
| 1:30.8 | remember in 2017, I was watching the intro of the second season of a handmade style. |
| 1:40.2 | And I'm not going to reveal anything about the show in case you want to watch it, but |
| 1:45.8 | it was really intense. |
| 1:47.9 | Like I'd seen the first season and I loved it and that opening scene on the second season |
| 1:57.7 | was I was in tears before the show even started and I could feel that familiar way of being |
| 2:06.2 | nicky in my chest and I could feel that pit and my stomach. |
| 2:12.8 | And I'm like, what am I doing in here in my room in my bed? |
| 2:17.9 | I'm comfortable. |
| 2:19.2 | You know, I'm blessed. |
| 2:20.7 | I was going through some stuff, you know, like 2017, 2018 is what I consider to be like |
