HANNA: How to quiet your mind🌈🦋
We human creatures seem to be one of the only creatures that is stuck in the mind quite often. We live in a society that is based on knowledge, mind driven knowledge. We are tempted to believe that the intellectual mind is most important.
Don’t get me wrong. The mind is important!
It’s a great performer, it knows perfectly how to fulfill tasks. Want to arrange an appointment with your dentist? Your mind knows the way. Want to know how late the next train goes? Let your brain do the research. It’s a necessity in understanding, in communication.
But we tend to use the mind as a leader of our whole being. And that’s where it messes up. The mind is great in fulfilling tasks but not so good at all in overseeing the bigger picture.
And when it doesn’t, it starts to panic. It wants to be more in control and develops itself as a dictator : do this, go there, act normal, hurry up, don’t complain. It starts to become more harsh with time dictating the body not to complain, telling the gentle whispers to shut up.
And this should be your alarm!
Once you notice your head handing out orders and ignoring tiredness, hunger, longing from your soul it’s time to STOP.
Sit down, bow your head to your heart. Do a meditation, put up loud music and dance or book a massage.
Anything that helps you to come back into your body will help to quiet the mind. So you can hear the soft whispering of the soul again.
