Why am I here? Why do I have so many negative thoughts?Learning to question the root of negative thoughts and ask if they're trueHow to separate yourself from the thoughts you haveThoughts don’t control us, beliefs do, so thoughts don’t affect us unless we believe them to be trueThoughts are neutral observations, thinking is judgment about thoughtsThe real root of suffering and how to shift it- is this true? Is this useful?Suffering is resistance to reality What is more important… being right or being at peace?The idea of letting go and surrendering is present in so many traditions around the world Attachments as the roots of suffering and ways to practice letting go throughout the day in small waysWe are not our thoughts… we are the space between. We are the canvas and not the paintOur attention is the architect of our realityWe live in a perception of reality, not reality ourselves, and where we put our attention shapes our perception How would I be if I knew everything would work out? And then operate from thereHow to get your body and your emotions on your side in this journey- they're there to remind us to come back to the present momentFear becomes gratitude, anxiety becomes fuel to show you what is importantEverything is a reminder and emotions can be guidepostsWe acquire knowledge through information but wisdom can only be obtained through lived experience Fear is not in the way… it is the way to the life that you wantA thought experiment: look back in your life at your best decisions and see how many were rooted in logic and analysis and how many were rooted in a sense of knowing Intuition is still, calm, never rushed or urgent The cost of making other people happy is your own happinessWhat other people think of you is a reflection of them, not of youHis 5 step PAUSE process for negative emotionsWhen you are fully present, the byproduct is peaceResources Mentioned Don't Believe Everything You Think - bookJoseph's website and InstagramAwareness by Anthony De MelloLetting Go, the Pathway of Surrender by David Hawkins
