Today, we're going to be talking about how to free yourself from your mind.

And I'm going to give you a story, a little small story that I gave in an episode a year or two ago,

and I got a lot of messages from people that were saying like oh my

God that story really helped me out and I'll give you that example and then I'll

teach you a little bit how to free yourself from your mind from your thoughts

to not identify with your mind to not identify with your thoughts so that you can have more peace in your life.

And so the story is this, okay?

Imagine that there's a bird and he's flying around and he's free and he's soaring through the air.

There's nothing in his way. It's amazing.

And then one day he's like, I'm going to take a break.

And he comes down, he finds a nice little lake to sit on.

He lands on this nice calm lake and he's enjoying it.

And he enjoys that it's calm, it's tranquil.

And decides, you know what, this is a peaceful lake, like I'm going to stay here.

So he stays there for a little while and he ends up staying there for so long that he forgets that he can fly.
