How to Clear Your Mind from Distractions
from RiseUp - Live Joy Your Way · host Kamini Wood
With so much information going on in the world, we can feel like we are never able to take a break. This can lead us to have a mental fog that disrupts our clarity. The biggest thing we have to pay attention to is what is taking our energy away from the meaningful things in our lives. We might be familiar with the external distractions that occur in everyday life. This could be a co-worker stopping by to talk to you in the middle of an intense work focus session, social media notifications, or even family members calling you, or you watching TV. However, very rarely do we pay attention to the internal distractions and thoughts we might be having that cause us to not be focused. Limiting beliefs about ourselves, internal anxiety that we might have, and the constant overthinking of possible scenarios, might be another example of internal distractions. We might take these thoughts for granted because we live it, and think it, every single day, but it should not be normalized to have these internal criticisms or chatter in our heads. These thoughts cause us to doubt ourselves when we should be trusting in our inner self. This is one of the main reasons why you might be experiencing anxiety or a lack of mental clarity/direction. We have a tendency to focus on the external, but we should also look inward and try to analyze/feel what distractions our brain uses to soothe us. Continue Your Growth Journey: Kaminiwood.com
