Consumption and Control
"Almost everybody is born a genius and buried an idiot." - Charles Bukowski
Everything within our society, whether positive or negative, begins in our inner worlds and our home life.
It begins with what and how we consume.
Now, when I say consumption I am not specifically referring to the macro view of economic consumerism. This is more so regarding the relationship between our mind and what we allow ourselves to absorb, emotionally, mentally and physically.
First example: Music.
Those fucking songs that we hear once…maybe twice, that continually spin hypnotically on the monotonous turntable of our iOS. Enter the audial consumption mind hack.
Second example: Mind numbing phrases.
You read or hear someone say a word/phrase and all of a sudden, without your intentional expressed permission, you begin using that word/phrase. “Sick”, “Ill”, “Stupid”… these slang phrases are to express gratitude for something admired or highly enjoyed. These are literal terms that fed a collective generations narrative of death, disease, and idocracy.
Welcome to reality.
:Enter political argument here:
The celebrated subconscious ignorance of our intentional power has been mutilating human consciousness since the beginning of modern civilization. Once we have been robbed of our intentional power; our minds and bodies are the next to go.
So…what do we do?
We must unlearn what society has accepted as “communicative societal norms” and ignite the true life force of our higher mind and intellect.
True conscious intention writes our realities.
We’ve been programmed, mostly through projected pain and insecurity, to believe our intentions to be worthless or unstable. We have been taught to believe that what we intend to happen won’t because of (insert external force here).
Truth is, that belief system is the roots of a dead tree we call “normal society,” however, all is not lost. As we know the only constant is change and permanency is an illusion.
We know our intentional consumption can make or break our physical + emotional health, relationships, and family dynamics. Let’s explore further.
Websters dictionary defines consumption as follows:
Consumption: the using up of a resource.
Ex. "industrialized countries should reduce their energy consumption."
If we break this down further, we can see how this word carries a negative connotation in our world.
For example, during the Tuberculosis breakout of the 1920’s the disease was referred to as “Consumption”. When a patient would become sick with Consumption their bodies would waste away until it was unable to support life.
Let’s break it down like we would in Sophomore English class.
Con-sump-tion is put together with the prefix “Con” meaning “with” or “thoroughly,” “Sump” meaning to take, use, waste, and the suffix “tion” which completes the nouns meaning as the action/result of the verb.
Now that’s a technical English way of looking at the word and the sum of its parts.
Here we are going to discuss consumption as it relates to the way we process the world around us. The goal is to innerstand how we can use our intentional Peach Power to override the systematic way we have learned to process our reality in real time.
Here at Purple Peaches, we can see how this word rules our homelife, communities and of course, our own minds and bodies.
Let’s dig in and go deep…The Purple Peach way.
Consumption = everything we have absorbed through our senses.
Our eyes, mouth, ears, touch…all influence our energetic bodies. In turn, commanding space within our physical bodies if we aren’t connected to our intentional Peach Power.
Here’s how I see it:
Food is processed through our internal organs influencing the functionality of our iOS (internal operating system) …yes, just like your iPhone.
Information control systems via internet and information via entertainment (Netflix, TikTok/YouTube, etc.) is processed through our mental bodies; thereby influencing our individual perceptive realities and belief systems.
The music we listen to is processed through our ear canals entering our mental bodies effecting the synaptic responses we use in our day to day interactions. This can influence our emotions, brain waves, intelligence and even our equilibrium.
The items and people we touch send electromagnetic signals to our brain representing a feeling of safety or unease/skepticism. Certain surface textures can influence our pleasure centers to calm us, excite us or trigger fear in us.
Why does this matter?
What and how we consume is directly linked to our perceptive reality.
When we begin to choose to intentionally change HOW we consume, we can shift our reality and influence the realities we share with our loved ones.
The Universal Law of Cause and Effect explains how our intentional Peach Power can change specific outcomes in our lives, shifting our thoughts, feelings, and perspective reality for the betterment of our homes and families.

I implore you to read The Kybalion and explore these ancient philosophies on your own to align with your own Peach Power in the way that most enriches your life, your family, and your perspective reality.
You can find it anywhere you can find books.
While you are researching indulge me and dig into the Philosopher Hermes Trismegistus and his teachings to better understand the philosophy around the Universal Laws of the Devine Universe.
Only you can change your mind.
When we hold our life force Peach Power energy, there is nothing in this world that we consume that can command space in our physical bodies without our intentional permission.
The first step is knowing what consumption is and acknowledging HOW we have given away our power to its influence over our own minds and bodies.
Second step is taking back that control with our Peach Power and rising to becoming the CEO and leader of our own energy, for our energy or “inner-G” is all we truly have in this life.
Only then can we have a more harmonized life of love, health, wealth and happiness.
