Don't believe everything you think! A follow up to the shares about anxiety and depression, with a bonus tangent about the experience of loneliness

February 04, 2021 • Colleen Donovan Brown

A deeper dive and zoom in on the practice of observing your thoughts without accepting them as true. This practice helps to anchor us in the present moment with amusement. It involves a conscious commitment to being a friend to yourself, observing your experience with a constant, loving and gracious companion. I've never seen anybody bully themselves into healing, and I've tried (we'll call that my 20s) healing comes with so much more ease when welcome every part of ourselves and every part of our experience without identifying or attaching to any one part of it. Sounds simple, and it is but it's truly a life long practice in which you can learn and grow joyfully.
