This will be my last post on Just Noticing. I've been talking a lot about noticing your thoughts in different contexts. I know it is helpful for me to look at my reactions to people, my thoughts about myself, messages that we get from others and my thoughts about those messages.
And of course, we can also notice our thoughts at and about work. If you haven't already, I'd encourage you to take some time to do that.
Today, though, we're going to notice something different. Something that actually isn't there.
I want you to notice, to find, where all those thoughts are coming from. The silence from which everything emerges.
This noticing is a lifelong practice in some wisdom traditions. Some spend years in retreat meditating on it.
But it can be powerful event to notice this for one breath. It can give us a sense of peace, and of calm. In the midst of turbulence, this silence, this space, is always available to us. This is the place where, moment by moment, our world is created. And many have said that to rest in it is the ultimate healing.
