“Sometimes I suffer from indigestion of the mind.” –Carrie Latet

How do you spell relief? M-E-D-I-T-A-T-I-O-N. 

It is estimated that we have 70,000 thoughts per day. Since there are 86,400 seconds in a day, that means we have about 0.8 thoughts per second.  It’s exhausting just to think about—oops, there goes another thought!

When you’ve had one too many helpings of food for thought and your brain is chock-full, the best way to clean your plate is meditation.  A mere twenty minutes of meditation a day reaps numerous physical and mental benefits—from weight loss to curing insomnia—and there are no side effects!  This mental floss helps to eliminate all those thoughts you’ve been gnawing on—and that have been eating at you.

If your mind is all talk, it’s time to take the action of inaction. What do you need to start?  Nothing—and the more of it, the better.  No technology needed, no batteries required.  Then what?  Sit.  Stay.   

It’s all a matter of mind over chatter.

Go out of your mind,

Gina J
