Course Description:

The Human Mind: We are fish swimming in our thoughts

An old wise fish passed two young fish swimming along. The old wise fish said, “the water’s nice today, eh, boys?” After a while, the young fish looked at the other young fish and said, “what’s water?”

A fish swims underwater and because that’s so normal for the fish, it doesn’t even notice the water. Water is the natural environment for the fish and so the fish doesn’t even notice that it’s swimming under water.

Our thoughts are like the water is to a fish. We believe our thoughts are who we are. We believe our thoughts are part of us. That’s simply not true!

Most people (and when I say ‘most’, I mean 95% of us) live in our minds. We have this constant running dialogue with ourselves inside our heads. We believe we are our thoughts, and our thoughts are who we really are.

Our thoughts do not define us. We are not our thoughts! But … If not my thoughts, then who am I?

So, how do we bring awareness to the water we are swimming in?

Join Erika Deines on November 6th and find out about a technique to break free from an unresourceful thinking habit, negative filtering, emotional reasoning, catastrophizing, or our internal critic.
