Working with the Thinking Mind, Returning to the Heart

Working with the Thinking Mind, Returning to the Heart

  • By Jeff Roth
  •  New Mexico October 2015, thoughts

Presenter: Jeff Roth
Date & Location: New Mexico October 2015
Podcast Notes:
Conceptual thinking has a deep connection to what is being experienced in the body. It is valuable to pay attention to whether out thoughts are wholesome – based in kindness and generosity – or unwholesome, based in desire and ill will. Awareness of thinking is where we need to head in our practice – loving attention is the vehicle. The very act of loving attention to the thinking process helps change harmful thoughts to helpful ones. When lost in thought, listen to what your heart is saying.
