"How we relate to our thoughts has a big impact on how our day unfolds, and also how we approach triggers in our lives.
By taking a few mindful moments, we can gain some space between us and our reactions, and have some freedom from what triggers us—we don’t have to respond the same way every time.
It’s a practice in breaking our habitual negative responses by first tuning in to how a thought or action makes us feel, and how it generates certain storylines in our minds.
We can step back for a moment and recognize: hey, that’s not a tried and true fact—it’s just a thought."-Elisha Goldstein(excerpt from post "3 Mindful Ways to Transform Negative Thinking")http://www.mindful.org/3-simple-ways-transform-negative-thoughts/l
Wishing you many mindful moments today
