Episode 158: Shutting Down Our Old Thinking

Psychology Has It Backwards

NOTE

Living in the Present Moment

Living in the present moment entails being free from the grip of memory and overthinking. Animals, particularly pets like dogs and cats, and children serve as excellent examples of living in the present, fully engaged in the moment without dwelling on the past or the future. When one becomes entangled in thoughts about the past, self-doubt, or future uncertainties, the mind becomes cluttered and lost. However, returning to the present moment often reveals that these worries were not as significant as they seemed. By embracing the present and letting go of overthinking, one can find clarity and peace of mind.
