Choose Your Dominant Thought

calmMy mind is very strong in that it keeps talking over and over. I am envious of people who have a quiet mind.

I have been working on this theme of the dominant thought, knowing the background noise is there. I am finding it really helpful.

I don’t do meditation, but I do run and play sports. I keep focused when I play sports, so why can’t I do the same thing in life?

I have learned that choosing my mind’s focus is like building an internal muscle. That language I can understand because I love using weights at the gym.

When Bev told me the mantra she was using to stay focused I thought, “that’s a bit too high for me” so I just keep saying “choose your dominant thought “, and you know what? It makes a difference!

Mastery Practice Tool

Releasing Internal Pressures

Recently, I had a clogged drain in the bathroom sink. I took action and poured Draino down it. I waited 15 minutes and then poured water. The drain opened. Now everything could flow. When we have a lot of clutter and stuff inside of us it is important we “empty our drains” otherwise we stay stuck. Continuous writing is a practice which allows us to empty what’s inside. Each day write continuously until you feel finished. Sensor nothing and judge nothing. Write without thinking. Let it pour out of you. Write until there is nothing more to say. Write until your breathing starts to change. You will notice that information shows up for you that is in some way helpful.

Testimonial

Bev's Laughing and Breathing Belly Workshop for Children was one of the best I have attended. She has a gifted ability to gently connect with children and teach and share with them her techniques of belly breathing, rooting, mind vacations and laughter. These techniques soothe and calm them whenever they feel overwhelmed or anxious - be at school, home or before bed time. Whether you have an overwhelmed pre-schooler or a test-anxious pre-teen, Bev's approach works! I love that she gave parents the tools to model and share these fundamentals of meditation with their children. I would encourage families to take her course...your children will thank you and you will benefit from ways to keep yourself calm and allow wisdom in.
