Episode notes
Recognize Your Inner World
- Many people experience an inner world of thoughts, images, self-talk, and analysis that feels like an internal space.
- Becoming aware of this inner world lets you see when you're identified with thought versus observing it.
Start By Noticing The Outer World
- Shift attention outward and notice the external world: colors, forms, sounds, and distance without labeling them.
- Observe the felt qualities of the outside world and compare them to your inner experience.
Perception Often Filters Through Mind
- Ask whether you perceive the external world directly or through your inner world; this distinction changes perception.
- Many people habitually filter outer experience through inner reflection or mind-made images.
