Deep dives

Understanding Doubt and Thought

Doubt is intricately linked to thought, with the content of thought inherently containing elements of doubt. It operates within a triad that includes the sense of a separate 'me' that perceives the world around it. This separation often leads to an obsession with self-management, where thoughts swirl around what one needs to do to be okay. Recognizing that these thoughts and doubts are all part of the same illusion is crucial for overcoming anxiety and OCD behaviors.
