Today The Power of Now deals with managing our thoughts. Not allowing a stream of uncontrolled thoughts rushing through our heads. Controlling our thoughts ushers peace into our minds.

Light of Consciousness
July 13th, 2023.
Every time you create a gap in the stream of mind, the light of your consciousness grows stronger. – Eckhart Tolle
Oh, the stream of mind, that flow of thought, as a rushing mountain stream which eagerly hastes to where? It amazes me when I give myself time to consider.
The mountain stream needs to rush – but not my thoughts. Overthinking has long been a challenge of mine. Unchecked, my thoughts blow like a strong wind howling through my mind.
Streaming thoughts are unhealthy for me, who longs to manage my thoughts effectively. Manage my thoughts for the health of my mind and body. I strive to focus on controlling my thoughts; the more I practice this, the more I become conscious. As my consciousness increases, so does my awareness of thought control increase. Like physical exercise, the more I apply this, the more conditioned my body becomes. As my body fitness improves, so does my physical health. It does not end there; I am healthier physically, and my mental health has improved in direct proportion.
The outcome of this practice is a state of peace and contentment. Some refer to this state as happiness, but I find love peace, satisfaction, and joy thrown in for full measure.
Cut the stream of thought or overthinking and live a fuller, healthier life.
