We all think. Mindfulness won’t stop that. What mindfulness can do is help us be aware of our thoughts so that we can put attention and energy into the thoughts that serve us, and let go of the thoughts that aren’t helpful. In this session, we will discuss how this works and offer a guided meditation on awareness of thoughts.
