Unknown: 00:00:57

I want to talk about thoughts. Today. i Your thoughts, ruling

Unknown: 00:01:05

your life.

Unknown: 00:01:07

Now you can come and say what Aurora

Unknown: 00:01:12

scores, my thoughts are guiding every action? And yeah,

Unknown: 00:01:19

my thoughts are

Unknown: 00:01:23

of utmost importance. And I follow any every order that

Unknown: 00:01:31

comes from that instance.

Unknown: 00:01:35

Do you say instance, from that level of consciousness? From

Unknown: 00:01:41

that level of awareness? Whatever you think your thoughts

Unknown: 00:01:47

are, I made a video today and posted it on Facebook. And there

Unknown: 00:01:53

already I said that there is a millions, billions, trillions of

Unknown: 00:01:59

opinions out there of what thoughts are and where they come

Unknown: 00:02:05

from. And I'm going to share with you what I think thoughts

Unknown: 00:02:09

are? And yeah, hopefully I can help you out in solving some

Unknown: 00:02:18

problems, or making you feel better about yourself. That is

Unknown: 00:02:23

always my, my ultimate intention.

Unknown: 00:02:28

So

Unknown: 00:02:30

what are thoughts? And how do they get into our mind? And

Unknown: 00:02:36

yeah, what produces those thoughts? I believe that

Unknown: 00:02:41

thoughts are a reaction to an emotion, or reaction to a

Unknown: 00:02:49

memory, which can also be tightly bound to an emotion. So

Unknown: 00:02:56

our brain, our being, and especially our mind is always

Unknown: 00:03:02

there to serve us

Unknown: 00:03:05

and to support our well being. And when it comes to our mind,

Unknown: 00:03:12

I believe that our mind is most of the time trying to protect

Unknown: 00:03:17

us. You don't get up in the morning and think I'm going to

Unknown: 00:03:21

be an asshole today I'm going to be mean to people.

Unknown: 00:03:25

No, I think we are all inherently good. But some of us

Unknown: 00:03:31

have made a couple of experiences that we don't want

Unknown: 00:03:35

to relive. And our mind is then our biggest ally and trying to

Unknown: 00:03:43

not reproduce shitty situations that we have gone through in the

Unknown: 00:03:48

past already.

Unknown: 00:03:51

So when it comes to memories,

Unknown: 00:03:55

you can feel triggered by an event that is happening right

Unknown: 00:04:00

now. But it is connected to some memory that you don't want to

Unknown: 00:04:05

relive. Of course, your mind is going to come up with judgmental

Unknown: 00:04:10

and negative thoughts when it comes to what is happening in

Unknown: 00:04:15

front of your eye right now. So you have kind of a pre made

Unknown: 00:04:20

filter that will kind of distort your reality. Now you know how

Unknown: 00:04:27

some people say one accident happened and there were five

Unknown: 00:04:31

people watching that accident and you will hear five different

Unknown: 00:04:35

stories of what happened. People sometimes even confused or

Unknown: 00:04:41

interchange the gender of people who were present at the moment

Unknown: 00:04:48

at when that accident happened. So this is how subjective your

Unknown: 00:04:56

reality is.

Unknown: 00:04:59

Now whenever

Unknown: 00:05:00

As to your physical body.

Unknown: 00:05:02

If your body is feeling healthy and good, and it really gets

Unknown: 00:05:07

everything that it needs, then you will most likely have

Unknown: 00:05:12

positive thoughts. A body that is in distress so dehydrated or

Unknown: 00:05:18

in pain, or under fad over a fad

Unknown: 00:05:24

will produce hormones that will signal to your brain that

Unknown: 00:05:30

something is off, something has to change. And now sometimes we

Unknown: 00:05:35

decide to ignore these signals so long that it will affect us

Unknown: 00:05:41

we will get sick, we will get very negative in our mind. And

Unknown: 00:05:45

we will not even connected back to our physical health, because

Unknown: 00:05:52

we become experts in not listening to the pain signals of

Unknown: 00:05:59

our body because it's inconvenient in the moment, or

Unknown: 00:06:02

because we are so numbed out already.

Unknown: 00:06:07

When it comes to your self image, the way you look at

Unknown: 00:06:11

yourself, the way you feel about yourself is going to dictate on

Unknown: 00:06:17

how positive and good and well intended your thoughts are. You

Unknown: 00:06:24

can imagine a person who is feeling miserable and sick and

Unknown: 00:06:29

feels ugly, and bad. How can they have a positive outlook on

Unknown: 00:06:36

life, if they feel socially about themselves already, so the

Unknown: 00:06:42

better you feel about yourself, the better.

Unknown: 00:06:49

Like, the more confident you are in what you do, maybe you found

Unknown: 00:06:53

your purpose. Maybe you work in a job that brings you lots of

Unknown: 00:06:57

joy, maybe you have children that are healthy and fit.

Unknown: 00:07:03

And you thank it because you are a great parent, then you will

Unknown: 00:07:08

most likely have positive thoughts, then, the general your

Unknown: 00:07:15

general view on the world like is the world a very scary place,

Unknown: 00:07:20

and you have to look right and left and be careful not to be

Unknown: 00:07:23

stabbed in the back all the time. Or are you very at peace

Unknown: 00:07:28

with everything that's happening, and you are content

Unknown: 00:07:31

with your surroundings, you are happy with the people that you

Unknown: 00:07:35

interact with, you have a safe home with running water heating

Unknown: 00:07:42

system or air conditioning, your environment is also going to

Unknown: 00:07:47

dictate on how positive you feel in your body, but also in your

Unknown: 00:07:55

mind. So it is really, really important to observe your

Unknown: 00:08:01

thoughts and sometimes even sit down and silence and notice what

Unknown: 00:08:06

is repetitive Do you have repeating thoughts kind of a

Unknown: 00:08:11

broken tape that that comes back on a loop and you can really

Unknown: 00:08:17

make sense of then it is wise to play little detective. And to

Unknown: 00:08:22

find out what might have triggered these thoughts. Again,

Unknown: 00:08:27

it can be memories from the past that you have to learn to let go

Unknown: 00:08:33

it can be your physical health, it can be your environment, it

Unknown: 00:08:37

can be your housing situation, it can be the people that you

Unknown: 00:08:42

surround yourself. And last but not least, it is what you

Unknown: 00:08:46

consume over your eyes, and your ears. And of course, all your

Unknown: 00:08:51

other senses from the environment that is going to

Unknown: 00:08:55

dictate how and what kind of thoughts you have roaming around

Unknown: 00:09:01

in your brain. So now then, you know where these thoughts can be

Unknown: 00:09:10

stimulated from. If we were to sit down and silence now and to

Unknown: 00:09:15

observe these thoughts like you know, observing the sky and the

Unknown: 00:09:19

clouds floating by, we can start to detach ourselves a little bit

Unknown: 00:09:25

from these thoughts and know that we are the entity watching

Unknown: 00:09:31

these thoughts. We are not our thoughts, because as I explained

Unknown: 00:09:37

earlier in a nutshell, it is our environment that kind of

Unknown: 00:09:42

stimulates certain thoughts, but we don't have to engage in every

Unknown: 00:09:48

thought that we have. We can just watch it first.

Unknown: 00:09:52

So next time you feel triggered by a person or you have weird

Unknown: 00:09:56

thoughts coming up out of nowhere. What's your surround

Unknown: 00:10:00

things first and see if there's any of the points that you can

Unknown: 00:10:04

kind of check before you react. And then the next point is to

Unknown: 00:10:11

see, okay, do I want to give that sod any further attention?

Unknown: 00:10:19

Or am I just gonna let it float by and not give it any

Unknown: 00:10:23

importance at all? It is you who makes the choice, you will be

Unknown: 00:10:32

the person who engages in those thoughts and act upon them, or

Unknown: 00:10:37

who just drops them and decides to engage in a different

Unknown: 00:10:43

thinking pattern. So what I'm trying to do here is to empower

Unknown: 00:10:48

you that yeah, you are not a victim of your mind, you're not

Unknown: 00:10:52

a victim of your thoughts. And if you have weird thoughts that

Unknown: 00:10:56

keep coming up, it is very sweet to go down that road and, and to

Unknown: 00:11:03

find out what it is with a coach or a counselor

Unknown: 00:11:08

to help you out because your mind can really drive you crazy

Unknown: 00:11:12

if it is constantly negative. But on an empowered level, you

Unknown: 00:11:19

can decide how you treat your mind, what you feed it, how you

Unknown: 00:11:24

treat your body, and who you're interacting with. Because those

Unknown: 00:11:29

are things that you can control, and change. So I hope this all

Unknown: 00:11:37

made sense. I know that I was not able to cover everything

Unknown: 00:11:43

when it comes to solids. Please know that yeah, I'm not hovering

Unknown: 00:11:47

above you and have it all together and think that I need

Unknown: 00:11:52

to teach you

Unknown: 00:11:54

how to heal yourself if you have weird thoughts, because I have

Unknown: 00:11:59

those weird thoughts too. And I'm learning every day to

Unknown: 00:12:04

select them to see okay, which sought is worth my while. And

Unknown: 00:12:10

which thought am I going to drop right away, because it is not

Unknown: 00:12:13

going to serve me on the long run, it is not going to create a

Unknown: 00:12:17

better connection to person. It is more destructive. It is more.

Unknown: 00:12:23

I don't know.

Unknown: 00:12:25

It is not? Yes, serving me in any way. So I want to make a

Unknown: 00:12:30

wise decision here for myself. And it's an everyday thing. And

Unknown: 00:12:35

every morning, I get up and know that I want to do better than

Unknown: 00:12:38

the last day. Even though I did great the last day, I'm not

Unknown: 00:12:42

going to measure it by that I'm going to go and start from zero

Unknown: 00:12:46

every day and try again. It is a good path to be on. It is very

Unknown: 00:12:53

healing and it heals your relationships. It heals your

Unknown: 00:12:57

relationship to yourself. And it really helped me to have a more

Unknown: 00:13:02

positive outlook on life. on everything that's going on right

Unknown: 00:13:06

now. And yeah, I highly recommend watching your thoughts

Unknown: 00:13:12

and deciding do I want to engage them? Yes or no? I would burn to

Unknown: 00:13:19

know your opinion about this. Do you agree? Do you disagree? hop
