Of course this information overload also brings with it another problem, we have more information to sort through to know what is the real from what is the bull!
I've been dipping in an out of many types of modalities in the last 20 years, I trained as an osteopath for 5 years only to be overloaded with illnesses to the point that I couldn't practise the art. Later because of political interest I found I could no longer call myself an osteopath because I didn't go through another process requiring more time and money whilst trying to recover from luekaemia. So although I hold a diploma in osteopathy I can't legally use it!
Ah well never mind here comes yoga, I like yoga, and with my osteopathic training I can teach a good and interesting yoga class. But hang on this gets hijacked as well. Health clubs spring up everywhere and in the competition for more members take the prices so low that now if I include travel time I barely make minimum wage! Ah well I'm a yogi I tell myself, it's not about the money is it? But hold on I see yoga centres opening charging extortionate prices for teaching classes, and for taking you on a yoga retreat for thousands of pounds to India where we all know it is so cheap to live, ah well I'm a yogi I can rise above the hypocrisy and rubbish. Hmmmm.
It's not an illusion is it, this is as real as anything else. But who cares, because we have global warming to worry about, we have the recession to worry about and all the other things to worry about. It's like a pick and mix of things to get you down. But booze is cheap, so we can all drink ourselves to death and forget about it all. Illusion what illusion?
What are you gonna do about it ?
