Talk/Affirm: Conveyor Belt Thoughts | Never Mind Your Mind

This meditation gently explores stepping back from automatic thoughts — like noticing boxes moving along a conveyor belt. You’re invited to reflect upon this metaphor, creating space for kindness and ease.

This is an informative, talk-style meditation that opens with the Wisdom of the Waves and gently closes with a single rhyming affirmation, supported by light emotive music.

Rooted in the gentle principles of When Self-Talk Is Medicine, this practice supports disengaging from unhelpful thinking without blame, helping calm the nervous system and reduce mental struggle during tough times.

Helpful for overthinking, rumination, mindfulness, self-compassion, and learning to step back from difficult thoughts.

Hello dear Reuben, it’s so wonderful to practice with you this morning.
as I was listening to your words, I thought to myself sometimes this is easier said than done and practice is the key. It’s just like working out a muscle. It’s something that always needs to be exercised. Overtime it gets a little easier and I find for myself that I respond more kindly and more often as a result of my practice. Thank you for creating this. I really enjoyed it! 💞🌸💞

Thank you so much. Very helpful, nourishing and uplifting.

This was very much needed and appreciated this morning. It felt like you were talking to me.
Thank you Reuben
🙏

Good morning! How beautifully you explained this Reuben, linking the ideas of NMYM with the example of the conveyor belt and validating self-talk. It felt that you had perceived what I was struggling with all this while, maybe at this very moment too! You always know. There is no end to your kindness and compassion Reuben 😍. From the bottom of my heart forever, Tanusree❤️💕
