From bad TV to good TV

For a girl who claims not to watch TV, I sure see a lot, don't I? The thing is that I don't deliberately watch it most of the time, but in the winter -- it's cold, it's dark and I find myself on the couch intending to catch up on reading and paperwork and instead...end up slack-jawed, watching some TV show my husband turned on.

But, last night was bowling night...which means I could watch PBS. My husband rolls his eyes every time I try to sneak the TV onto PBS, but I like a lot of the evening programming. It's like the poor man's History and Discovery Channel.

Last night, I caught "Dr. Wayne Dyer: Change Your Thoughts, Change Your Life" and it was exceptional. WQLN's description of the program probably sums it up best:
"Self-help expert Wayne Dyer with advice, adapted from the classic Chinese book "Tao Te Ching," by Lao Tzu, on how to lead a balanced life."

It should be required viewing for today's busy moms (and dads).

I haven't been able to stop thinking about several things he said -- becoming more flexible, being content, having a sense of oneness with the world (yeah, I know...it sounds all tree-huggerish, but..it makes sense when he explains it).

I don't see the same show on the WQLN schedule for the rest of the month, but they have a different one running on Saturday from 11:30 to 2:30 called "Dr. Wayne Dryer -- Inspiration: Your Ultimate Calling."

It's TiVO worthy TV.
