Welcome to Life Unedited Sanctuary,
Where reality happens.
I'm Tiffany.
A reality therapist for over 20 years.
Do you ever have the thought that you can't turn your mind off?
Or just when you're trying to fall asleep,
That's when all the thinking begins and turns into stories,
Making it very difficult to fall asleep?
Well,
This is a short little practice that you can tuck into your back pocket and take it with you anywhere.
To bring you a moment of pure peace.
Wherever you are,
Right here,
Right now.
Softly close your eyes.
And inside your head,
Think the sentence.
I wonder what my next thought will be.
And think it again.
I wonder what my next thought will be.
And think it again.
I wonder what my next thought will be.
Now open your eyes.
When you think the sentence.
I wonder what my next thought will be.
Do you feel the pause at the end of the sentence?
That pause is a little bitty piece of blank mind.
It's the space in between the end of the sentence and the next thought.
And with that blank mind comes that moment of pure peace.
The beauty of it is the more it's practiced,
The longer the space becomes.
Like I say,
You can take that sentence with you anywhere throughout the course of a day where you need just a moment to stop,
Ask yourself the question,
I wonder what my next thought will be.
Take a breath and move forward.
It's also really,
Really special at bedtime.
Tuck yourself in,
Get all comfy,
Close your eyes.
Ask yourself the question and wait.
If a thought crosses your mind,
Notice it,
Don't attach to it,
Rethink the question,
And wait.
What I can promise you.
Is that you'll fall asleep.
In the blank space,
In the moment of pure peace.
