Managing your thoughts

Mindful thoughts

Thank you for a gentle reminder at a very stressful time in my life

Sadness and stress

I learned that both thoughts of sadness are linked to current stressors. I became aware and let the thoughts pass with each breath.

Managing thoughts

I learned to let them come, let them go. Easier said then done but becoming aware of that makes it a bit easier.

Managing your thoughts

While meditating I did just that. Let the thoughts float away like clouds. Breathing in and breath out with positive affirmations instead.

Riding ...

I was actually a blank slate until she said the word “cloud” and I immediately was riding on top of a big, white fluffy one floating high in the sky. I was able to see many other ones around me. It felt like I knew they all had names but I was able to Not focus on them and just let them be. I could see the horizon in all directions (because I observed all the clouds had flat tops) and I did notice the sun was shining. No birds, no planes, no sounds. Everything was serene and calm with just enough breeze to keep us moving slowly across the sky... I guess I also noticed she had a lovely voice with a very pleasant accent towards the end. Very relaxing!! And I feel recharged 😎☮️

Thoughts

I learned that it’s normal to have thoughts good or bad. It’s ok to acknowledge these bad thoughts like clouds passing and to let them go.

They Are Just Thoughts

Thoughts are like clouds. They come and they go. But we choose to hold on to these thoughts. We need to let them go.

Calmness

You have to be aware of body and can’t let to much pressure in the core

Thoughts

I am stronger than my thoughts, they are not fact. I can control my thoughts. They are just passing through. My brain is stronger than my feelings.

My thoughts are not me

Dont live by them, disregarding them if they dont mean anything or are not real.

If I'm not...

Paying attention to the thoughts passing trough my mind, and even acting upon them on occasion, WHY HAVE THEM?!? Don't these thoughts make me who I am?!?

Do not dwell

There is no need to think a thought is important and to dwell. They’re just thoughts.

Thiughts

I 🤔 too damn much about 💩 that really does NOT matter one-iota in the end!

I learned

that my thoughts don’t define who i am. they are just apart of my everyday life.

Thoughts

I shouldn’t dwell on my thoughts this helped me realize that and is marking me better.

thoughts

i felt more relaxed and knew what i was thinking is normal and ok but it will pass

Mi sento più rilassata e meno stressata ma comunque molto “agitata”.spero che questa app mi aiuti

I have to breath and relax for feeling better with myself I hope this app will help me because i m feeling so vulnerable in this moment.

be aware of your thoughts

thoughts come and go, you are not your thoughts, they come and go, managing anxiety is knowing not to cling on your thoughts

Thoughts/Stress

I learned that to eliminate some thoughts from our mind, first we have to acknowledge them.

Pushing Away

I noticed that pushing away a thought or expecting it to leave makes the thought stronger and more persistent. These thoughts require attention.

Day 11

I overthink 110% of the time and even justify that it helps me work through my thoughts. Sitting on them, holding them, processing them. It doesn’t help. What’s helped me is acknowledging that I might have a bad or good one. Identifying that whatever I’m worried of will pass. It always does. I’m always worried of the what if and how will I handle this.. but I always handle it in some way.

I am not my thoughts

This meditation helped me realise that I was accepting thoughts as facts without even being aware of it, and letting it negatively affect my mood. I was able to see the thoughts for what they are, just thoughts.

Over-thinking

Our thoughts are like clouds. They come and go. They float on by. All we need to do is be aware that these are just thoughts in our mind. No need to dwell over them, or think too much that we create our own unpleasant stories from these unpleasant thoughts. They’re simply just thoughts.

Help

I listened and it was like everything was gone but it was sad after I had to come back to reality

Clouds

Just like clouds drift by, my thoughts drift by, clearing the way for new thoughts. Actually, I feel it is very important to pay attention to my thoughts because depressing thoughts can sabotage my day before it has even begun. Often I find myself thinking I'm really tired when I first get out of bed and then I realize, no I'm not, I'm just waking up. Or dreading my workday and it hasn't even begun. Then looking back at the end of my workday and thinking it was a really nice day. So I find it is really important to think good thoughts and create my joy from within.

Thoughts

I love comparing thoughts to clouds! Most are beautiful, fluffy wisps that drift by! Some clouds are denser, but they still drift by! And the really bothersome, dense storm clouds which occasionally burst, still float away! Nothing is permanent! Let it go...

Reminders

I was reminded that all of my anxious thoughts and my happy thoughts and my neutral thoughts all carry the same weight. They are all just thoughts. They aren’t me.

Thoughts

I learned that my thoughts are just clouds and that they will float away if we let them.

Thoughts

I learned that thoughts are just thoughts, and it’s not always necessary to act upon them

Control Thoughts

I learned that we need to control our thoughts whatever kind they are and let them go.

Thoughts

I now feel more in control of my thoughts and lighter knowing my thoughts are clouds that will eventually disappear

Simple

I am aware of my awareness of others durning the day. I don’t know how to deal with certain people but meditating helps me to not give a damn.

Sobbing

Today I had to tell my stepson that his father has moved out all his stuff and he won’t be back to his home for the last 4 years. My heart is breaking because there is nothing I can do and no matter how much I love him I cannot keep him safe and happy. I feel I have let him down - parents are supposed to protect their kids - not let them be in pain. I cannot stop crying.

Stresses

With this meditation it said to name three things I appreciate about myself but, I could not think of anything which caused me to be stressed and anxious. Thinking, maybe I don’t have any good qualities.

Not paying attention

I broke up with my bf two days ago... I’m just so stupid. This feeling is killing me just by knowing that I won’t talk or see him anymore is so sad

thoughts

I learned that thoughts are like clouds, they come and go. We shouldn't cling onto thoughts or else we can become our negative thoughts

Nothing

Didn’t help one bit, thanks. I can’t seem to let go, it hasn’t hurt this bad in a long time.

Don’t dwell on thoughts

Different types of thoughts are present and not to hold onto them. Just let them pass

Stay mindful

Your mind will constantly throw thoughts at you. Simply learn how to notice them and move on from them whether they be about an incident in the past or a worry for the future they are just thoughts and it’s a matter of how you react to them.

Keep up the state

Now if I only could manage to be mindful of the state this meditation put me into through my busy day.

I felt calmer

I felt that I could focus on my breath and felt as though I was able to calm my mind. I feel the only tension I currently notice is my my. It seems as if my breathing still feels shallow and that I have to fully work my chest to get a deeper breath. But my body and mind few a lot calmer than it was feeling. I am not my thought, and my thoughts are not me. My thoughts are just thoughts and they come and go like clouds

First

I feel relaxed in my body. I feel heavy, like I have a pillow filled with warm water on my chest and belly

Passing

Rise and pass. A natural flow if I allow them the freedom to do just that. 🎈🎈🎈

Rising and Passing

My thought will take a natural flow of rising and passing and live their Owen energies if I give them the freedom to do this: rise and pass 🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈

Thoughts

Nitima, again perfect for today! I am observer of my thoughts and stories, also a total being! Perhaps a separate observer exists for each story! Thanks.

Spirit

I feel more spiritually awake and it feels really really good.

Being mindful

Thoughts are just thoughts. Be mindful of my thoughts will help ease the anxieties.

You are not your thought

It’s important to be aware of the thought without identifying with it

thoughts are like clouds

be aware of thoughts and learn to identify that they are just thoughts that come and go

Calming.

I learnt that I have the ability to remain calm. It’s in my power to find calmness and peace.

Thoughts

What a wonderfully simple idea that you are not your thoughts and they do not define you. It’s a liberating idea.

Thoughts

I learned that I am not my thoughts. It arises and pass away.Just observe it.Thanks

Reminder

I felt this was a great reminder for me to let go of what I was obsessing over, and to allow myself to think positively instead. Very grateful, much blessings💕

The water sounds with the meditation words softens the train of thought

I was more aware of the thoughts the visual nature somewhat like revisiting memories and now as I write this wondering why they came up. So there is a layered ness to this analyzing and thinking and analyzing. Even writing this feels a bit more if the same and however I can put it to words and set it down. The journaling here completes

My thoughts

I'm exploring more of your lessons on thoughts. It's comforting to hear you say that thoughts are just thoughts. Which simplifies it in my mind. Like clouds in the sky. For me, the hard part is letting them just be like all else. I've always pushed them aside and that usually works for the time being. But I see now that I must let them flow like all things. Or at least observe them. Recognize them. I never knew that. Blocking them or ignoring them isn't the answer. I have more work to do ahead of me than I ever imagined. I see now that it is a wonderful moment to moment process or mindfulness. A new way for me to exist. Thank you.

I learned that my thoughts are like clouds it’s always passing.

I learned to let my thoughts pass like clouds. Always coming and going

Managing your thoughts

My thought are not the realty, it's only me that are making them real and I shouldn't focuse on the bad ones except if I want to ruin my day
