I've been having such a rough week, feeling overwhelmed and what not, I wasn't able to get out of bed for two days because overwhelming feelings and chronic pain don't go hand in hand but after watching this yesterday, I've been able to do some things I like after stopping the movie in my head. The part about most things being predicted or remembered brought me back to reality and in that moment I realized that I was trying to predict things. Thank you so much for your great advice & this video. It was so helpful!
I think you said on another video that you are not a magician, but this is MAGIC! I have been playing so many movies in my mind, I just turned them off! All of them! What a relief, Dr. Paul! Than you, thank you, thank you! 💕💖💕💖💃💃💃
The principles are powerful when they are illuminated and we can see how to apply them to our lives, Jalile Caballero. Magic or powerful, glad you are open to using them.
Dr. Paul! You are so funny .... when you said. "Ahhhhhhh!" I laughed outloud...the pooches here probably thought I was coo coo! :). 😀Appreciate all the editing and prep it takes to make your video's Dr. Paul. 💛 This is another vid the morning routine watching on positivity and support that is a gem. Programming going on without knowing about it=head trash is a good point to start working on ourselves. And the movie concept....where would you be without it? Nice question to use when I feel unbalanced in my mind, my imagination...bookmarked for more viewings when I need this healthy balanced perspective. 🇨🇦. 💚
I am trying to figure out how this actually works in my life. I am a newly widowed mother of teenagers, including one with autism. I have a chronic illness that is effecting my heart and lungs. I get up every day and try to do what is needed, but with limitted energy I really cannot do what is needed. I am certain I can change some things, but my reality really is pretty big.
When you said asked where would we be if we moved that movie in our mind to the side, I immediately thought.. I would feel peace. I have realized I block my own thoughts with this overwhelming negative feeling, almost like i obsess over it without wanting it (diagnosed OCD & generalized anxiety), and I can't seem to just move those thoughts to the side and go about my day without them. This might help me. I feel like I need to distract my mind and realize I have control even if it feels like I don't.
What if you're trapped in the movie. Turning it off causes dire consequences and the consequences may be worse than the movie itself. But this movie is eating you up every day, little by little. How can I make the movie more tolerable?
Rosetta Muradian, I'm not sure what you mean by turning off your mind movie would have dire consequences. Perhaps you can start telling yourself that the movie isn't so bad after all and find things to be grateful for - evaluate it and look for anything good. Don't focus on the previous parts (practice forgiveness if necessary) and don't worry about what will happen in the future because you don't know for sure. Stay in the present.
