Treating Thoughts Like TV Channels
- Though thoughts are about real things, they themselves are just thoughts, sensations and hallucinations with no substance.
- We don’t need to engage with every thought and get carried away to the next associative thought, drowning in the thought spiral.
- It is a good idea to treat thoughts like TV noise coming from a different room, something you can easily ignore.
- Do not act or get emotionally attached to the constant stream of thoughts all the time, giving your mind some rest.
