And more importantly, beyond the concept or our thoughts around it How can we experience this directly For ourselves? Well, come with me into this video for a play around with this but, I do warn you that once you know you can’t ‘un-know’ it, you can of course forget, but to be mindful is to re-member, but only come if you are prepared to leave the judging mind behind, just for a couple of minutes you are very welcome to pick it up again as you leave. To get the most from this video you are going to need to bring some playfulness, some curiosity and attention. So, let’s have a little look at the nature of thought.. Thoughts are just thoughts Just fluctuations of the mind What gives a thought its power is our engagement with it. If I choose to engage with this thought I turn it into thinking The spotlight of my attention illuminates a thought It makes it appear big and bright in my awareness. But if I move the spotlight of my attention onto where I am rather than where the thought is what happens then? What is illuminated? Well, from here, for me, I am not my thoughts I am not the voice inside my head There is a space And this is a space worth exploration… Now, from here what is true for you? Are you your thoughts? or are you far bigger and greater than the smallness of thought? You can only know your experience & what is right for you When we first come to this putting everything down enough to feel into it can be a challenge. So you may want to play with that a couple of times... They are just thoughts, they are not me – thank goodness for that! And as we change our relationship to thought we change everything And that is so empowering… If this has resonated with you or you know someone who might be helped by this please do help me spread the love by sharing, please do subscribe to my channel & like if you like.
