“Is my misery all in my head?”

“Why can’t I focus on the positives?”

“How can I learn to change the story my mind is telling me?”

How can we change the stories in our heads? How can we deal with the monkey mind? And how can we begin to accept the truth that everything we experience in life is 100% mind made?

This episode of Sex, Love & Elephants features a Dharma Talk centered around how pesky our minds can be and how much misery our wandering thoughts can bring us.

Today, I’m teaching you what we can do to work with the mind to understand its storytelling, to understand the nightmare scenarios it paints in our head, and what we can do to work with that so we'll be happier, calmer, more effective, more compassionate, and have a much better life.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

(09:32) Any moment is created in the mind based on a selection of the data that we’re experiencing in that moment

(14:45) We're all born into pretty lucky human lives, even if we’ve suffered trauma

(26:16) The stories we create all day long are just as equally fictional as a nightmare

(33:52) If I don't like the fact that I'm feeling angry or upset or lonely or vulnerable, I can recognize it’s a story and I can work with the mind to change it

(48:11) In a mortal body, there's going to be pain and illness and it is going to die suddenly or slowly
