In the previous post, I talked about a way to deal with distracting thoughts or “monkey mind”.
I talked about not fighting those thoughts, which triggers resistance and makes them stronger. I talked about acknowledging them instead but telling them “not now…”
But, there’s another way to approach this.
You can let them drift on through….
When a distracting thought comes (and come they will, especially when you’re getting started), acknowledge it.
Say “oh, there’s a thought…”
Then let it drift on through your mind and out the other side. Pay it no mind. Return your attention to your focus.
I like to think of these thoughts as being like fluffy clouds, drifting across the bright blue sky of my mind.
Sounds silly, but works well. and who could ask for more than that?…
And more meditation on the way
