The Weight of Thoughts
Your thoughts are not reality, they are just thoughts. How often do we get stuck in that place, though, trapped in the mire of our thoughts believing them to be real? We create ourselves with our own imaginary worlds. This is the weight, the… Continue Reading “The Weight of Thoughts”
The Mind Trap
Of the 95% of people who believe that they are self-aware, only 10% of people actually are. On my own journey of wellness, introspection, and self-awareness I remember hearing this quote by Tasha Eurich in a TED talk. Her findings came down to one… Continue Reading “The Mind Trap”
