Episode notes
People Live Through A Mental Role
- Most people live through a mental image of themselves, a conditioned role that they mistake for who they are.
- Eckhart Tolle says this egoic role produces predictable, unhappy behavior that blocks awakening.
Interrupt Future-Projections Of Worry
- Notice when your mind projects into the future and creates worry rather than dealing with the present.
- Become aware of that thinking so you can separate imagined fear from actual problems and reduce needless suffering.
Body Treats Imagined Fear As Real
- The body cannot tell imagined scenarios from real events and reacts with fear as if the mental image were real.
- That fear lowers immunity and can increase the likelihood of the feared outcome, creating a harmful feedback loop.
