How Do You Calm An Overactive Mind?
• Relax. Sorry, but that is the first step of gaining control of the mind. Sit quietly and focus on a natural sound. If your mind throws images in your face, let it. Stare at each image until it fades away. Force it to not bother you. The more upset you are with your mind, the more images your mind will throw at you. If a natural noise does not work and your mind is too loud, try focusing on a loud noise. Blast that music. Focus on a truck. Over power your mind. • Repeat to yourself that you are what you think. You are what you think. Your mind is powerful, but remember that you can control it. Repeat and believe this everyday and every time your mind churns out its little ideas and images. Eventually your mind will start to hesitate and then weaken, but you must believe that you are the master. • Do not give your mind too much of an opportunity to torment you. Distract yourself with reading, writing, drawing. If those things do not work distract yourself with people. Nothing heals you
