I never knew… Until just recently, a mindless state is not a bad state at all… I get used to the continuous streams of my own thought and I never knew that I could stop the stream, and it seems so normal. Don’t overthink, don’t sweat the small stuff… There are so many quotes about our over-thinking nature.
That I could actually stop thinking, and even go beyond the mind was unthinkable. Hmm… Or perhaps the analogy is like I forgot how to live without my mobile phone. It seems unthinkable, but it’s actually perfectly fine normal 20 years ago.
For the last few days, I made a mental note whenever I started to think about something, a one word note to be exact; thinking, worrying, the past, regretting, etc…. and strangely the thinking stops. Always. And it takes some time before the arrival of a new thinking.
These gaps of mindless state make me calmer, I feel at ease and I am not worrying about everything at every single time. I like it.. ☺️☺️
Cheers, may you too be at peace,
