Feeling overwhelmed by the media onslaught? We like the advice that to successfully interact with popular culture, it helps to develop a wider perspective about what is truly important in life. 'We tend to personalise things that happen in the world without pausing to realise that we have a choice about how these things will affect us,' says Warren Berland, author of a book called Out of the Box for Life. 'To choose to be less emotionally involved in every horrible thing we read or see on TV is the first step in getting out of the box we trap ourselves in when we identify with negativity and superficiality in the world.'
