Beginner Meditation Series | Mindfulness of Thoughts to Reduce Stress and Anxiety

It is your mind’s job to think, just as it is your stomach’s job to digest the food you eat. When practicing meditation, you may feel like you need to stop your thoughts or clear your mind completely. Your thoughts do not cause suffering, when you attach to your thoughts, and believe they are absolutely true with no other possible reality, this is what causes suffering. Because it is impossible to stop your thoughts entirely, I invite you to shift your intention to one of releasing attachments to thoughts.


Whether your thoughts are scattered and disorganized or intrusive and cyclical, change your relationship with your thoughts to reduce suffering due to undesirable thoughts.

Let this practice be your training for dealing with thoughts outside of meditation. Be patient and compassionate with yourself during this process and know that thoughts, like breath will come and go.
