The root of the mind is in the heart.
Michael Singer
The cause of most of the mental noise we experience, that leads us to react or act in Life a certain way, is a result of, not the cause of our disturbance. It is a result of emotional turbulence.
Emotions...energy in motion...are constantly attempting to get up and out. They can be disturbing to the psyche or human experience. What is the greatest emotional energy down there? Fear. The psyche doesn't want to deal with this disturbance. It does whatever it can to convince the personal mind...and therefore us...to push and keep the painful stuff like fear down there. The emotional turbulence just circles like a whirlpool, crying for release. Discomfort increases. The mind does whatever it can to keep it down: distracting, numbing, denying, avoiding, averting, doing, fixing, suppressing, repressing....It seeks to find its solution to this "problem" in the superfiical external living. It doesn't get to the core of the problem. The root of the problem. The suffering doesn't end.
So, the mess in your mind can only be cleaned up by facing what is in your heart. Focus and breathe through the heart.
All is well.
