How Do I Let Go Of Thoughts That Are Not Positive? | Q & A
The WISDOM podcast Season 2 Episode 55
‘To notice one’s thoughts in daily life is an example of being mindful and self-aware.’
Q:
"I am working on letting thoughts occur outside of my meditation practice without using resistance to those thoughts that do not serve me positively. Do you have any suggestions on making those experiences flow more smoothly?"
A:
When you notice thoughts that do not serve you; that you may be resisting, notice if these are thoughts that require further exploration and understanding.
Our instinct can be to avoid or disavow thoughts that are unwanted and which cause discomfort, rather than to look at them and discern whether they are thoughts that act as reminders of what is important and needs your attention, or if they hold accuracy and truth; and if not, how you will then replace them with thoughts that you choose proactively.
To live awake and aware is to have the ability to be notice your thoughts; to allow them to pass, and to choose the thoughts that you most wish to hold.
Please join me in this special Q & A episode of 'ask dorothy' as I share the best practices to let go of unwanted thoughts.
