Notice The Thought

Before you can change anything, you have to notice it. Most of the time a thought shows up and we just go with it, like it's a fact. But a thought isn't always a fact — sometimes it's just a picture, a scenario playing in your head. In this one, I talk about catching the thought instead of being carried by it. One slow breath in through my nose, one long breath out through my mouth, and suddenly there's space — space to choose instead of just reacting. Awareness creates the space where a different choice becomes possible. More here: phil-h.netlify.app
