Tools to help manage the thoughts in your mind
Just watched this video from the guys at Off the Left Eye. I felt it was so useful and important information I would flag it up here.
This video teaches you how to recognise and deal with low and higher mind thinking. However, at the same time, importantly, it does not bash the ego or rational mind that has a function. Like weeds that are useful in the right place, but can strangle other plants growth if they are not managed, so the ego can cause harm if its growth is left unchecked.
I include this video from Twenty One Pilots as every time I hear it, it reminds me of the hard work the Off the Left Eye team are doing in trying to drum into the audience the importance of keeping hope (and tools to help with this) and knowing you can survive through mentally hard times.
