How do I stop thinking or stop thought all together? Are you over thinking about negative things or about someone too much? Stopping thought relates to quieting the mind and focusing on a specific subject.
When we are thinking, we are not present with all of ourselves. We are not present with our bodies. We are not present with the way we feel. We are not present in the world. We are not present with other people. We are only present with the unfolding of thoughts and wherever our attention to those thoughts take us, regardless of whether that place is positive or painful.

Teal... you literally cured my debilitating OCD I’ve lived with for years in 11 minutes through a video lmao. THIS is ALL I was looking to be told by any damn medical professional, but nope! You’re changing the game, they all need to be trained under you or at least learn from you..... WHY didn’t I find this earlier!!!! Damn! Well, maybe I wouldn’t have been ready to receive the message and would be resistant towards it had I come across this earlier. I’m now very open to it and started applying it INSTANTLY! THANK YOU, BLESS YOUR HEART INFINITELY! I’ve taken what’s always been mine back.🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🤍💗💓💗🤍♾🥺😭😭😭🤧🤧🤧

@EastFame 7 лет назад

this very much sounds like a technique against OCD. However I would like to hear Teal analyze this topic in more detail. OCD thoughts are not simple thoughts, they bear this message of danger, urgency and life or death importance along the basic information in the thought. Thus the OCD thought is sitting in the background even if the attention is focused somewhere else.

@tillywontspeak 6 лет назад

isn't it because that thought is meant to be having attention?

@sanny-nk9re 4 года назад

@Thomas Victorian doesn't happen like to everyone?

@colorfullyme 3 года назад

@@sanny-nk9re well everyone has disturbing thoughts, but not everyone obsesses about them or performs compulsions to get rid of the anxiety. I have OCD too and my therapist showed me a funny cartoon about two different streams of consciousness. Person A (no OCD): That guy has a nice sweater. I could pick up this knife and stab him, and then his blood would get all over it and ruin it. Just like I spilled coffee all over my favorite shirt last week. I wonder if they still have that shirt in stock. I'll invite Sharon to go shopping with me next week and see if I can find it. She has been doing so well at her job, but I am worried about her marriage.... Person B (OCD): That guy has a nice sweater. I could pick up this knife and stab him, and then his blood would get all over it and ruin it. Oh my god, what is wrong with me?? Why would I think something like that? Can he tell that I am thinking this? I need to get away from the knife, or he could be in danger. Knives are dangerous and should be avoided. Don't look at the knife. Don't look at his sweater...

@youbelonghere74 Год назад

Yes, I've been wanting Teal to talk about OCD for years now. I really want to hear her perspective on it. Maybe one day. For now I will try this technique but I would like to know why some people have OCD and to go a bit deeper into how it can be healed

SYNCHRONOCITY at it's finest.... This was extremely on point. I've been slacking off "spiritually" these past 2 weeks. Not working that much on myself, not meditating not going out in nature etc etc... I would think about it then it would pass. today I started having a bit of anxiety so I decided to meditate, it felt good, however, 5-10 mins after the meditation i started having some more anxiety and I fell directly on this video. It feels good of actually seeing the thoughts for what they are instead of "experiencing" them. Thank you Teal for all the help ! Another ace up our sleeves ! Have a good one !

I have a really hard time differentiating between my emotions, thoughts, and soul/inner voice

@Michael-gb3cj 4 года назад

My understanding is this: The soul is your ethereal, 'higher' self. Your soul initiates thought/intent, which is interpreted by the brain and translated into 'emotion', which causes physical sensations in the body.

@samuelj2475 4 года назад

How are you three years later concerning this?

@lilithjesus7718 4 года назад

that is understandable 😊. I think of: emotions: something felt thoughts: words/ images seen/heard soul/inner voice: pineal gland If tuning into & differentiating between these is your desire, I'm not sure if this helps , but for me I have found help from doing Brian Scott's chakra meditations. Start with the root chakra. Most white Americans tend to not have their root chakra activated. Much love 🧡, Holly Marie

@joybreegaming8781 3 года назад

The thing is because there are different levels for a lack of a better word with different truths so on one level emotions and thoughts and your inner voice are the same while on a different level they are different and in another they don’t even exist

@thexpax 3 года назад

Thoughts originate in your brain. Feelings are felt emotionally. The inner/soul voice comes up like an unthought thought.

@becky931 3 года назад

THANK YOU for offering techniques for visual and auditory "thoughts". I have not often heard this addressed by mindfulness teachers. It's a level of thinking that really started to emerge for me when the layer of wordy thought becomes quieted. Now that I am aware of this form of thinking within me, it can become overwhelming, sometimes shockingly detailed. I love the idea of crumpling up a picture or filing away a photo. Sometimes those vision from my inner being and are worth watching and understanding, but allowing them to hijack my attention and investment for too long gives my power to focus and integrate away. I forget that it is a vision of my own creative spirit, not an external spirit haunting me that I must bow down to.

@FionaRavennn 7 лет назад

This video came up just in time. I am currently staying with my family until the end of summer and dang it's tough! Every day when I am at home with them I get so drained because they don't understand and respect my boundaries ( I need space and my alone time to self reflect), we get into fights every week. I start to think negatively whenever I am around them, probably because I am still angry with them. I am draining myself by overthinking way too much these days, I start to have white hair ( I am only in my 20s! :o ). I am really grateful that you made this video. I will have to watch and practice what you said a few more times before I can get the hang of it. Thanks Teal!! Sending you and your crew love from HK

@Entheogenical 7 лет назад

Hey Fiona, I hope you don't mind if I sub your channel? If you ever want someone to talk too, I'm free.. it's not like I'm always busy, and whenever Teal can't answer questions, I'm sure I can. :) Have a good day.

@johndoe1719 7 лет назад

You might want to do some emotional body clearing as well, esp. when it comes to family ties -- I think this You-tuber has a video on that as well. Emotions are far more powerful than mere thoughts, because of the momentum of consciousness that they pose as extremely magnetic imprints that can go deep, which will bombard you with like thoughts to incessantly have to deal with.

Thank you for explaining the rebellion of the mind that happens as well, I experience this and things get worse sometimes and I wonder if I'm not doing it right. Nope! Thank you for explaining so many things to us!

@johndoe1719 7 лет назад

I am not my perceptions, but if I want to rid myself of a thought - according to this recourse for unwanted thinking -- I have to acknowledge the thought from a stance of neutrality to prevent the feeding of the thought. However, I feel that I apparently still have to claim "ownership" over the unwanted thought in order to have a real choice of what to do with it; otherwise, I would not have unbridled, and definitive choice to do what I prefer with the unwanted thought that is redirecting my desired focus. So, I would acknowledge it, OWN IT and then creatively(lovingly) redirect the unwanted thought with my wonderful imagination toward it's dismantlement and then continue with my desired focus. ^_^

Thank you. Been enjoying your videos for a couple/few years now. Love them and love you. Your videos and this whole channel take a lot of work and a lot of time. Many of us enjoy and take your information and sharings for granted. Out of a thousand views you may only get a hundred thanks. So I just want to let you know you are very much appreciated and on behalf of everyone who does not take the time to say it, I thank you 1000x for each one time I watch one of your vids. Hopefully that puts you in the positive now. :) Keep up the good work Teal! Sending warm regards and divine blessings from SoCal.

@Spooky_Psyche 4 года назад

I'm realizing that I view all of my thoughts as different versions of myself walking in front of my mind's eye and kind of "performing" whatever thought they're trying to convey. What I used to do for my whole life before watching this video was just ignore them, or worse yet, scream at them to leave me alone and go away and that I hate them. Now that I've seen this video and many other of Teal's, I'm realizing that what I should be doing is actively walking right up to those different versions of myself, looking them in the eyes, and hugging them with all of my heart and soul. I tell them that it's okay to feel this way and that they do have a purpose in my life, but right now, their presence is not needed. Go rest up and save that energy for when I _do_ need you, because then you'll be able to make a contribution that could significantly help me or someone else later on. I basically view all of my thoughts as perspectives that must be acknowledged and explored before they can be dismissed to rest. When I do this, the version of myself that I was hugging suddenly vaporizes and floats into the sky of my mind and the universe, and therefore into the essence of my higher self where he heals and realizes his inner love warrior. By practicing this method, I've had SO much more more emotional energy, which allows me to deal with hardship with much more ease, which means I've also been sleeping better, which then gives me more physical energy, which then translates to more spiritual energy. It really is a chain reaction. I've only been enacting this thought process for a few months and my life has already _drastically_ changed for the better, both internally and externally. I can't believe some people seriously try to pin Teal as a cult leader 😂 she's out here saving lives. People save themselves, which then leads them to save others, and then those others save themselves, which leads to even more others being saved. It's genius.

@sleepyseagull4200 2 года назад

This is exactly the reason why my ocd intrusive thoughts are getting worse and worse. Every therapist would tell you to just think the thoughts and nothing bad will happen. Now knowing that my thoughts are actually attracting the exact things I do not want, it's getting so much worse. I'm stuck in this vicious spiral and I can't keep living like this :(

@maurisio_god 5 лет назад

Even things have starting to happen that have made the situation bearable to me and probably there will be a solution in the near future. Thank you ❤

@johnmerritt516 7 лет назад

All good advice, it is possible to stop thought completely with time and practice by focusing on the breath or other body sensations. Only one thing I would add that I have found works for me is not to name a thought. The reason being is once you give it substance by naming a thought it can then start to form associations in the mind that then lead on to other thoughts thereby trapping you in a never ending thought chain. Instead of naming a thought best to just acknowledge it and just simply label it thinking thereby breaking the chain of association. You can then just watch it arise without being attached to it or feeding it in any way that can generate new thoughts. You can then watch is slowly dissipate with no energy to sustain it. Do this often enough over time and the mind will eventually become still.

These mantras are guaranteed to transform any human from incorrect thinking. Good fortune fair folk!

Teal you mentioned in a past interview that it was important & time for both sides to heal. There is no healing for those that have experienced perverted pleasure/pain from past trauma. We try to live together, but until one destroys the other it is a struggle for both. One side can live in a balanced way by means of self discipline/control... the other cannot

@kelpszoidzlzelps2566 7 лет назад

It is good you discuss this. Stopping thought to observe the mind is the fundamental principle of real Buddhist meditation. Vipassana/Samatha of early Buddhism,, "Chih-Kuan" of Tientai in Chna, known as Shi-Kan in Japan. Tientai wrote the "Maka Shikan" ---"Contemplation and Insight" full title means to stop the mind and observe it. This was later summed up by Nichiren in Japan as using the title of the Lotus Sutra (myohorengekyo) to fuse ones self to, to stop the mind and observe the "True Object of Worship" which is the "3000 lifestates in a Single moment of thought" Or the Great Mandala as depicted by Nichiren. This is experientially based as the Mahayana Lotus Sutra---Saddharma Pundarika. Ultimately in full stopping of the mind, the Middle Way opens up and unfurls itself. Technically this stopping and fusing was called "kyochi myogo" fusing subject and object together in an instant. Were one in an especially deep, accentuated, alert meditation, able to stop the mind an amazing event occurs, this was known in the Saddhama Pundarika Sutra (Myo ho renge Kyo) as the "Ceremony in the Air."

@Spacescapes8 2 года назад

Whenever I watch Teal I feel my energy and my thoughts raising vibration, understanding things and get inspired. And I wander whether it is her energy that affects me from the screen if that's possible or whether it's my own associations I have to her, things like she is a mirror and she is a shadow worker. And I tend to get this sort of question a lot with things ie. is it their energy that directly affects me or is it me responding in a certain way to them that affects my energy.

I came across your video about hopelessness last night and learning that its like a spider web ie the more you try to get out the more it sucks you in was invaluable. This video about thoughts explains mindulness type techniques Ive heard before in fantastic terms. I just wanted to congratulate you on your videos and thankyou

Thank you Teal :) I realised that I have been applying these techniques on and off often. I’m glad you confirmed them with your video which is full of solid information as usual :)

When you spoke about lemons I was so distracted by your eyes. They are the most interesting I've seen.

This theory about stopping thought sounds good in theory but constantly trying to replace a mind full of often unwanted thoughts with a thought about one thing entirely different is very hard work and is a distraction in itself.

lisa renee at energetic synthesis has very powerful respurces that can help with mental bondage loops and the like. thx for this video. in the modern world, over thinking is one of the easist consciousness traps to fall into !

I love lemons and blue sky. Rare in the usa anymore.

You're a princess, beautiful and wise. Your words help many, everyone should watch your videos. Another good technique to stop thought is to put into action, focusing and doing things with your hands. Manual labour such as gardening for example helps or video games that require extreme skill. I hope this helps. Namaste.

I so needed this right now, I was just thinking i should really meditate and this came up. i always find it hard to keep a meditation practice because i get intrusive thoughts coming in and instantly react to them and then end up giving up. >.

Attuning to sound seems to be a good way to stop thought.

Noticed a lot of negativity on the web concerning Teal Swan , always a sign that the person that their running down is the real deal. Nobody who is a spiritual guru would be malicious towards another. If i were Teal i would keep silent , at the most maybe " Is that so" .
