For many people this is counter intuitive to what they have been led to believe.

We have spent so long in the futile attempt to try to control our thinking.

Yet as Greg explains today it is actually the RESISTANCE to what we are feeling and thinking that causes so many problems. It is this resistance that causes tension and it is the tension which affects our ability to access the SKILLS we have.

As he says:

‘You can think ANYTHING you want until you think it is WRONG’

 It is so important to begin to change the RELATIONSHIP we have with our thoughts and feelings.

To become an observer of them.

As an observer we are able to create some DISTANCE without becoming FUSED with our thinking.
