🎡Would you agree? 🎡Is your virtual, imagined reality- the one you create in your head- worse than your actual lived experience? 🎡I can think of many experiences where the thought of doing something was worse than actually doing it. 🎡We add layers of suffering to our reality simply by the thoughts we think and buy into around it and by the emotions they trigger; simply by the meaning we give and the future we forecast. 🎡It can be hard to separate out our thoughts and emotions from actual experience. 🎡How have you successfully scared yourself this week? 🎡How do you add suffering to your pain, illness or difficult life events? #thoughtdistancing #zoomout #thoughtsarenotfacts #mindcontrol #resilience #resiliency #painandsuffering #painscience #paincoach #healthcoach #yogaheals #yoga #mindfulness #meditation #softstrengthyogaandwellness #softstrengthphysiyo #softstrength #imaginedreality #virtualreality #selftorture #mentalknots #mentaltorture https://www.instagram.com/p/CCdqu98A7J7/?igshid=prguhg7h5r58
