Coping with Your Chaotic Mind

Using the metaphor of “toddler mind”, you can approach your own busy mind with an attitude of warmth, compassion, and lightheartedness. Avoiding the power struggles with your own mind, meditation becomes less of a struggle.

I think referring to the mind as a toddler is the perfect metaphor for when we allow ourselves to get carried away, and bringing awareness back to the breath will always be the perfect return back to our center, back to a calm mind, and settle our "toddler" down. Nice guidance my friend.

Thank you Sarah! So wonderful to connect with someone close to home. Excellent meditation, just what I needed.

What a warm, calming, accepting voice — which also describes this meditation. Thank you!

Great metaphor! Thank you!

Loved this. Especially for the morning. Really helped shift my perspective and love my busy mind like a toddler which quieted down when I was gentle and loving toward it.

Sarah's insight on how to reframe & observe one's chaotic mind was wonderful!

I actually feel calmer and surprisingly HAPPY. What a great excersize.

Great metaphor! Like a good parent, the witness can be amused by the toddler mind, separating herself from it as needed, while never withdrawing her love. 💕 Thank you!

I love the idea that I can always drop back and become the witness. Thank you so much!

Such a calming voice and wonderful lesson. Thank you for sharing yourself.

Excellent! Loved this- thank you 🙏💕🌺

I loved this!! The toddler and witness metaphor was incredibly helpful. 🙏🏻

Much appreciated. I need all the help I can get with the wandering or "toddler" mind.

Thank you for all this deep love🦋🦋🦋

The toddler brain was a good vision of how my mind wanders.
I am grateful for that perspective.

Really interesting, fresh ideas, lovely voice and manner. Really helpful. Thank you. 🌺

This really helped me today when my mind was out off control. I will come back to this again. Thank you. ♥

Thank you for this pacifier 😊💜

Nice! (More of a talk than a meditation.) Thank you for sharing. 💫✨💫✨

That was excellent! My mind and heart have settled and you have a beautiful, soothing voice. Thank you!
