Every morning when I wake up, my head is attacked by thoughts about many different things, life issues, etc. Some of the thoughts are pleasant, and some of them cause anxiety and depression. It happens when you react to them and condition yourself to these thoughts.
For example, I have an important meeting next Monday, and on Saturday morning, I worry about how this meeting will be. My mind creates numerous scenarios about how and what I will talk about during this meeting, with lots of “what ifs” and other daubts bombing my head.
This thinking process makes my body feel like there is a real danger right here and right now. My heart is beating harder, my palms are sweating, and I am getting sick. I get up from my bed and nervously do my morning routine, even though I don’t pay any attention to where I am or what I am doing at the moment. My attention is fully occupied by worries and thoughts about future events.
Or there is another type of thought about a past event. These thoughts take me to that moment from the past, which I live through again and again. If the moment was pleasant, I am trying to repeat that moment using my imagination, remembering each small detail, and dreaming that it will happen again. Also, the past event could be stressful; in this case, thoughts are that I could react and act in a different way, in other words, I regret.
The reality is here and now, so your thoughts about the future or the past are irrelevant. Body and subconscious react to those irrelevant thoughts as those scenarios are happening right now. It emaciates the body, so it seems that you are always tired, even if you just woke up a few hours ago and did nothing that could make you that exhausted.
Any thought is addictive. Practice controlling your own attantion helps you live your real life here and now. Of course, it seems hard, and for some of us, it seems even impossible to do so after decades of heavy addiction to our own thinking process. Be courageous; step into the moment now, get out of your biggest addiction, and be free.
May love be with you!
