Summary

Your negative thoughts may be recycling through your mind day after day on autopilot. Researchers reveal that we experience more than 50,000 thoughts each day, more than half of which are negative. More than 90% of negative thoughts become repetitive. Introspection allows you to break free from a repetitive negative thought pattern. How can we live in the physical world with all its distractions and uncertainties without losing our soul essence? This is the question great thinkers throughout the ages have pondered. The answer may be simpler than you might guess -- go inward. This week, you'll be journeying within to listen to your inner wisdom as you release the cares and worries of the world. This is part of a collection of meditation series focused on Your Inward Journey. You'll focus on tapping into your inner wisdom. This is part 3 of a 7-part Journey Within meditation series, episodes 2131-2137.

0:08.8	I'm Mary Meckley and I welcome you as you get ready to settle yourself down for a little more peace, energy, and clarity.
0:20.0	In today's episode, you are going to be guided, you are going to be guided using a powerful breathing technique that is simple
0:29.6	But it requires you to do something you may not often do, and that is to listen to what
0:39.4	is happening within yourself. It's all too easy to be distracted by all that's going on around
0:48.3	you. It's much harder to sit and stillness and listen, listen, to your inner wisdom. That's the theme of this week's series we're exploring here on the podcast.
1:07.0	And the theme for this week is a journey within.
1:12.0	So you will be spending time listening to your inner wisdom.
1:18.1	You may hear the hoarseness in my voice, I don't exactly have a cold, but there must be something in the air

2:48.4	each time you sit down to meditate.
2:52.4	When you notice this happening, you can break these negative
2:57.6	thought cycles with some introspection.
3:10.0	Researchers have shown that we actually think more than 50,000 thoughts per day and out of all these thoughts more than half are negative.
3:17.2	And what's even more shocking is that over 90% of your negative thoughts repeat in cycles throughout your day.
