I Bought a TV for the first time in 20 Years, here's why...
It has been a decision many months in the making but I just bought myself a TV for the first time since I was a teenager wanting to play video games in my bedroom. Of course I've still watched tv, shows on my laptop, sport on my iPad, YouTube on my phone - and I have even owned a projector and streamed movies on it. I've just not had a black mirror sitting in any room I've lived in, creating an eerie lopsided vortex of energy in the space. Well yesterday I challenged that and went into Curry's and walked out with a 55inch OLED Samsung TV. So why the change of heart? Lately I've been finding myself on some evenings going down youtube binge rabbit holes. Channels like Veritasium, Tom Scott, The Internet Historian, Atrocity Guide (to name a few). The algorithm has gotten so good at feeding me edu-tainment channels that I quite enjoy and makes me feel like I'm learning something too. Now watching these channels in themselves I don't think is bad, and everything in moderation and at the right time. The main thing I noticed though while these are all intellectually stimulating besides the odd funny moments giving me a chuckle I wasn't really FEELING much other then an addictive kind of satisfaction. It's hard in a 10-20minute video to get emotionally invested and frankly youtube mostly isn't about that type of content (though of course there is still good emotive content on there). I know when I am in a bit more of an open/soft space emotionally and I watch a good movie, or get really invested in a set of characters in a tv show it helps me to feel and access my own feelings – wether they're of sympathy or because the moments are relatable to my own life and relationships. Maybe a first world problem but watching shows or movies on my laptop just isn't the same, it's close up, small and it's my work station. On a TV I can unplug for the evening, airplane mode my phone and fully immerse myself in whatever I am choosing to watch (that's the plan at least). Especially with these longer, cold nights it gives me the opportunity to do something that is emotionally stimulating and soulfully productive rather then just doom scrolling.

late to the party to respond @Timothy Shieff but I never owned a TV myself for a long time. I was facing the same challenge though at some point - binge watching youtube videos even for learning purpose. So now I am trying to add the discipline of adding boring hours ( no screen no devices) to boost creative thought process. Any questions related to areas of my interests / thoughts - i keep an A5 note book and pen with me. I learnt this from one of hte postcast of chatgpt co-founder. Trust me its awesome. At some point the mental stimulation need goes away and you realise you got a lot in your subconscious brewing to ehance in your areas of interest . For me its biomechanics and my profession in engineering.

Any swimmers in the group ?
Hi Guys. I definitely experienced fluidity when I run after doing stability and rope work as first thing in the morning. Has anyone experienced something similar for swimming. While swimming intentionally, i try to feel if I am making an infinity pattern but I feel that my hands and legs dont seem to in sync as in case of running. Any thoughts / experiences ?

Anyone new to this space?
Hi, 👋 I've just started the Stable program (4 days ago) and really enjoying the Swiss ball work. My movement background is varied (tai chi, yoga, acroyoga, inline skating, running), have been practicing a bit of flow rope recently too. Anyone else recently joined? Would be nice to have some shared community on this journey. 🤜🤛 My plan is to complete the Stable program and then start exploring other courses on the platform.💪 Cheers, Alan
