Entertainment is important, the brain needs a chance to rest now and again, and rest is an essential part of a balanced, high-vibe life.

Telling our stories and listening to the stories of others is a uniquely human trait but the characters and situations we spend time with, through movies and TV, have an impact on our perspectives and should be selected with care.

​

As an admitted entertainment buff, I have spent countless golden hours immersed in the Shangri-la of story worlds and I can tell a difference in my mood when I have enjoyed something high-vibe or just killed some time with the junk food of entertainment.

​

As Lucy Maud Montgomery so aptly said, "When you are imagining, you might as well imagine something worthwhile", and I wholeheartedly agree.

​

So much of art describes a spiral in someone's life, either they are spiraling down to a certain, unavoidable, doom or they are spiraling up to a better understanding of themselves and an improved relationship with the world.

​

I want to spend time watching people spiral up.

​

I want to be inspired and encouraged, not demoralized and depressed.

​

If all that highfalutin, mumbo jumbo, sounds good to you, read on for the TV and movies that have been my kindred spirits over the years or that are currently providing me pleasant company.
