The mind lives its own life and constantly gives us things that, in its opinion, need to be thought about, smeared or chewed during the day (that same mental chewing gum when thinking is not productive and does not lead to either obtaining answers or solving problems).
The first place to start is to understand that we mistakenly separate our minds from ourselves. It’s as if we see constant updating of content in the news feed on social networks. But, if there we have the opportunity to choose: unsubscribe, subscribe, complain about the content, click “dislike”, then for some reason it doesn’t work that way with the brain. We cannot say to ourselves: “This, of course, is not a bad thought, but I won’t think it, at least not now.” Or when you need to focus on a specific issue, but instead spam content keeps creeping into your head from vain thoughts about nothing and everything at once. So is it even possible to control the hell in your head?
The answer is yes, you can. And that's good news. You can learn to control your thoughts!
Learning from children
At first glance, this may seem like an overwhelming task. Some certain conditions are needed, for example, to be born a monk in the mountains of Tibet or to go to Goa. But no, the task is feasible and, apart from being yourself, nothing else is required.
Look at the kids. How they learn to control their body. They move funny, walk awkwardly, and constantly fall, but thanks to their persistence in learning to control themselves, they eventually, by the age of 11, master the movements. But then they are overtaken by a new surprise from the body - it begins to ripen reproductive system. As a result, they still have to learn to manage it for several more years. And only at the age of 18-20 is a person fully formed and in control of himself. But, not all of us, unfortunately. During this time of maturation and formation, we were not so diligent in managing our thoughts and emotions.
We didn’t really understand why we needed this, but by the age of 25-30 the need is realized quite acutely. And here, our age is both a plus and a minus. Let's start with the minus.
Over the course of 20-30 or more years, we have learned to react and think not entirely effectively, and relearning is always more difficult - it’s like getting rid of bad habit. You are actually afraid of losing her, since she has become a part of you (so it seems). And you just don’t understand how to fill the void, what will replace it. But, fortunately, we will immediately replace the habit of “not controlling your mind” with the opposite one. This is the advantage of our age - we know how to learn, we have experience in taming our body. All that is required of us is discipline and regularity, which, again, is easier to achieve from us than from a three-year-old child or teenager.
Mental computer
Our brain is often compared to a computer in terms of coolness and functionality. Agree, it would be strange if we did not have the opportunity to turn off our computer or laptop at any time. Or, if he turned on himself whenever he wanted, opened programs, applications, said: “Look how important and interesting this is, or sad, and we need to be sad”.
If we support the “brain-computer” analogy, then, in theory, we could stop the running of our thoughts, choose what and when to think about. To live in such a way that the brain, without our knowledge, performs only internal work functions: it controls the body and basic instincts, and the active mind is completely under our control. Then we could think about pleasant things most of the time, imagine beautiful things, and enjoy life. And they wouldn’t have been replaying for the third day the incident with the neighbor who didn’t like the way you looked at her. Or that idiot who drenched you from head to toe at the bus stop. It seems to me that the prospect is quite tempting, so at least devote time to it and practice.
Exercises for every day
I suggest starting small.
- Stop from time to time and review your thoughts. Notice what the thought is and let it go. There is no need to go deeper: you are an outside observer and do not participate in the process of thinking about something. Imagine opening your work email and seeing a lot of incoming messages. Mark each of them in turn as read, but do not open the letter itself.
Do this for 2-3 days, 5-7 times a day, approximately 1 time per hour during the working day. It will take a minute to do everything about everything. That is, 5-7 minutes a day for 2-3 days will be enough for you to learn the principle. In my opinion, not such a difficult task - maximum 21 minutes in 3 days.
- After the principle is learned, in the next 7 days, start noting: this is a good thought - leave it in your inbox. This is bad - we put it in the spam folder.
- Then, learn to group incoming thoughts into themes: pleasant, sad, happy, anxious, unwanted, annoying, and place them in mental folders. This will take you 5-7 days.
- When you are already good at shifting the focus of attention from thought to thought, quickly and accurately determining whether you like it or not, putting them into folders, start immediately sending negative thoughts to “junk mail” or “spam”. Serious, disturbing, important thoughts should be put off until later if now is not the right time to think about them (for example, you are going to bed or decide to spend time in the company of friends). Positive, joyful, invigorating thoughts, learn to call up from the appropriate folders at any time and immerse yourself in them - finally you can open a letter, read it, perhaps several times. Enjoy the beauty of the style, pictures, follow the links to even more pleasant thoughts.
This may take you from 7 to 10 days. If you feel comfortable, then increase the training time and bring the skill to automaticity.
- Try to control your thoughts in the most uncomfortable situation. For example, your boss yells at you, instead of getting annoyed, shouting back, or awkwardly defending yourself, you open a folder with pleasant memories and rush off somewhere to Cote d'Azur, listen to the sound of the surf. And when the boss calms down, tell him that you will come back next time.
- Your next task will be to learn how to deal with spam, that is, with the flow of incoming thoughts. Oh yes, if you still haven’t guessed, then it’s you who produce them. It is not they themselves who get into your head, but your own mind plays chess with you, putting you in check and checkmate. But now you take control of the situation and simply learn to reduce the flow of incoming thoughts. This will allow you to focus as much as possible on the task at hand, easily catch a state of flow and increase efficiency - since you are not distracted by neural chatter, but get the job done using 100% of your mind's time.
What will happen when I stop the flow of thoughts?
Will there be emptiness? Sounds scary. It's the same as going to social media. network, but there is not a single message in the news feed. First thought: something is broken! An evil on a universal scale has occurred. But no, don’t worry, most likely, if you are not one of those Tibetan monks, do not live in daily meditation, and the state of nirvana is generally a dark forest for you, then you are reliably protected from this, but it’s up to you to decide what exactly to think about, what filmstrips scroll in your head, you can 100%.
Visual images and inner voice
Most likely, as soon as you begin to focus on what is happening in your brain, you will be faced with the fact that one thought is inseparable from another. Moreover, they are kind of a mess: just when I was thinking that it’s probably time to start preparing my child for school, I’m already thinking about what day of the week is better to undergo a technical inspection. And, if you listen, in parallel with all this, I remembered that I didn’t send an important letter for work and in general, I’m fat.
I would compare it to a radio receiver that constantly loses wavelength. To highlight a specific thought, turn the program search knob. Do you feel that it is becoming more distinct, there is less and less interference? Of course, you won’t succeed the first time, but daily training will give you results.
How do we usually perceive what we think about? - this is the inner voice that we seem to hear and the visual images that we seem to see.
What can we do with sound?
We can turn it off, make it quieter or louder. We can change the speed of speech, voice timbre and intonation. If you hear your mother's dissatisfied voice, then it is in your power to replace it with an affectionate or approving, supportive one.
What can we do with visual images?
Send a mental signal to change it. For example, add colors, colors, dynamics, complete missing elements or remove unnecessary elements; change completely. We can make it movable or static. Just experiment and manipulate what you see and hear within yourself. Exercise briefly, but regularly. And in the future, you will feel that you can tune your brain to the right job pretty quickly.
Why learn to manage your thoughts?
This is a very important skill, in principle, for any person, and is especially relevant for those who are embarking on the path of self-love. Over the years, we have become accustomed to offending, humiliating, blaming and reprimanding ourselves. We do it instantly, without thinking. It is precisely such thoughts that we need to track and filter out, first of all. Send them to the spam folder. And in their place, evoke praise, approval, acceptance and forgiveness.
Will you succeed the first time? - Unlikely.
Will you be able to completely get rid of negative and “extra” thoughts? - Don't think.
But what you will definitely learn is to focus on those thoughts that you need and are useful.
Our thoughts cause our states. We drive ourselves into despondency, fatigue, and depression. And in the same way, we can evoke calmness, joy, and delight in ourselves. It may seem that sadness came on its own - nothing foreshadowed trouble, and in general, nothing bad happened, but! uncontrolled thoughts and memories in that same confused mess, at some point sent a signal to our emotional brain and body that we should be sad, and we responded to it.
When we pay attention to our active mind and notice what is happening in it at the moment. When we consciously shift the focus of attention from thought to thought, then all other thoughts seem to lose weight. They are there, hanging out there on their own, restless, but our brain, emotions, feelings and body are busy with signals that have a greater intensity of impact, and it increases due to our conscious deliberation.
Finally become the king in your head. Tame your brain. Be more effective and joyful. Train every day to achieve amazing results.

Thoughts cause physiological disturbances.
Our beliefs influence bio-chemical processes in the body,
and at the energetic level, beliefs influence our State and mood.
Alsey Volny
Any change in thinking creates vibrations in the mental body, which then affects the emotional body, and then the physical body, causing resulting brain activity. This activity in nerve cells causes many electrochemical changes.
Intense feelings, such as uncontrollable passion and excitement, hatred, bitter envy, anxiety, and temper tantrums, actually destroy the body's cells and cause diseases of the heart, liver, kidneys, spleen and stomach.
Every thought, emotion or word produces strong vibrations through the DNA in every cell of the body and leaves there a strong impression - an imprint of information.

When Consciousness turns to a certain thought and dwells on it, certain vibrations of matter are created, and the more often this vibration is created, the more likely it is to be repeated and create a habit. The body follows the Consciousness and repeats its changes. If you concentrate, your eyes become fixed.
Thoughts create the environment.
Many of greatest people in the world, born in poverty and unfavorable conditions, born in slums and dirty conditions, they managed to get the highest status in the world due to the fact that they brought some value to society.
Remember that in your weakness lies strength. Poverty also has its value, it inspires humility, strength and endurance, while luxury creates laziness, pride, weakness and all kinds of bad habits.
Don't be offended by bad fate or your environment in which you grew up. The greater the gift given to a person, the greater the difficulties he is packed into, in order to discover his limitless potential through a deep revaluation of values.

and we just need to open it,
abide in it and draw energy and knowledge from there during difficulties.”

Instructions
Think about the other side of the problem.
The easiest way to control is to think about the opposite. If you are angry with someone, remember something kind and good; if you are excited, imagine yourself in a quiet and calm place.
Reflect thoughts on.
Remember some of your bad thoughts and desires and imagine that it has become a reality. You cheated on your significant other, beat up your boss, threw the TV out of the window... Think about how much suffering this could bring to you and other people.
Abstract from your thoughts.
Present your thoughts as a slideshow, as if they were not your thoughts, but just separate ones. They have no influence on you, you don't need to believe them or rely on them.
Find the source of thoughts.
Thoughts always have a source, and that source is emotions. Emotions are the body's reaction to an external stimulus.
To find the root of the problem, you need to grab hold of the emotion, look at it from the outside, and understand it.
Imagine your thoughts in the idea of emotions, sensations. Neither emotions nor feelings can be right or wrong until you embody them. Just accept your emotions and relax.
Restore feelings and thoughts will disappear.
Fight thoughts.
There are a couple of ways to fight your thoughts.
Come up with a word that you will use to stop yourself, for example, “stop”, “no”. And if an unwanted thought creeps into your head, drive it away with your magic word.
You can also get rid of thoughts with mini-corporal punishment. For example, put a rubber band on your hand and pull it back, snapping it when necessary.

This program It’s not done in one day, even if you really want to. Each stage requires a minimum of 1 day.
When you have driven away a thought, a gap has formed in its place and it must be filled with some other thoughts.
Heavy thoughts interfere with your work, make pleasant communication difficult, and rob you of your good mood and they don’t let you live joyfully. It is quite possible to master thoughts. Moreover, if you do this regularly, then no thoughts will be able to dominate you, life will become more beautiful and happier.
Instructions
Accept that it is impossible to stop thoughts. Directing them in a different direction is also not an option, since they will still return to the source of concern. You can calm them down by talking with friends, watching an interesting movie or loud music, but there is a better way. The most humane method of calming thoughts is meditation. A technique that humanity has known for hundreds of thousands of years.
You can meditate in the forest, by the fire, on the bus, at home and even in the office. Watching a live fire, a river flow, or a sunset or sunrise will noticeably calm your thoughts. Sometimes this only takes 15-20 minutes. This is visual meditation.
To calm very difficult thoughts, try meditating in silence with eyes closed. Ask your loved ones not to disturb you for about an hour, remove sources of sound: phones, laptops, players. Sit in a comfortable position with the lights off or in the dark. Close your eyes and take a deep breath.
Continue to inhale and exhale, constantly observing them. Soon you will notice how thoughts will begin to come to you. Don't try to stop or extinguish them. On the contrary, watch how the thought came and then dissolved. Let them be, let them come and go, like white clouds flying past you.
At first, it may not be so easy for you to constantly focus on your breathing, but with practice you will get used to it. If you are lost in thought and distracted from meditation, do not blame yourself for it. Bring your gaze to your breath and continue to observe.
When you learn to watch your breath, try to watch what happens in the moment between thoughts. Here the thought comes, here it is, now it goes away. Then there are a few moments before the next thought comes. Watch them. Once you get the hang of it, you will find this practice very interesting.

Tip 3: How to get out from under the power of your thoughts and feelings
The excessive influence of emotional and mental processes on a person’s behavior does not always work in his favor. This leads to excessive anxiety during the day, and also does not have the best effect on decision-making and goal setting. Also, excessive mental activity takes away a huge portion of a person’s energy, leaving his body weak and lifeless.
What can a person do to get out from under the yoke of his own mind? Many people are accustomed to the idea of struggling with their inner world, trying to distract it with some external factors. This can be various entertainment, the use of alcohol, tobacco and drugs. Less often - a deep dive into labor activity, to the point of bringing oneself into a state of complete exhaustion.
This happens due to the fact that the European world does not tend to see other ways to solve its internal problems.
Fortunately, there is a simple technique that can help anyone achieve a sense of balance and peace in their minds.
It’s worth trying to replace resistance to thoughts and emotions with acceptance of them. At first glance, this may not seem easy, but oddly enough, it’s enough not to do anything with them. Simply put, stop adding fuel to the fire. You can ask yourself the question “can I allow my thoughts to be?” If this is not possible, it makes sense to try a variety of relaxation practices, including meditation or yoga positions.
After these phenomena have been accepted, the person is revealed new opportunity called observation. That is, now he can look at his mental forms and feelings from the outside without getting involved in them. And in the presence of close observation, they tend to slow down and then dissolve, leaving behind only a background feeling of calm.
In general, the essence is close to meditation. And to be more precise - to its active version, without sitting in silence and elements of relaxation. The advice to observe may seem difficult, especially for those people who are constantly involved in their feelings and reasoning. But in fact, it is enough to pay attention to information from the sensory organs: the world, its sounds, smells, tactile sensations on the skin. This will help shift the focus of consciousness from its phenomena to its observation. After all, ultimately, a person is already this “silent observer.”
mind control will allow you to completely control your own life and become the master of your destiny.
There are three simple exercises how to learncontrol your mind :
Positive thinking
Most people simply do not realize the enormous power of positive and negative thoughts in their minds. The method is extremely simple: as soon as a negative thought fills your mind, immediately replace it with a thought that will lift your mood. Imagine that your brain is like a slide projector and every thought is like a slide.
Whenever a negative slide appears on your screen, quickly change it to a positive one.For example, many people are annoyed by being late or waiting in line. By concentrating each time on negative thoughts and judging a friend who was late for 10 minutes, a person programs negative models and risks remaining captive of negative thoughts. However, let's try to change our attitude towards the situation in a positive way. After all, waiting is nothing more than training willpower for some, or an opportunity to talk to yourself, or observe the world around you. There is a famous example about a half-empty and half-full glass. An optimist perceives a glass half filled as half full, and a pessimist perceives it as half empty. The glass hasn't changed at all. But one person is more often happy from such a perception of life, while another is saddened by it. It turns out that we ourselves choose how we react to this or that event in our lives.
An example of this is a story about two children. The parents had two twin sons. One of them was an optimist and the other a pessimist. Everything was good in life for the optimist, and his parents didn’t really think about what to give him for his birthday. But they thought for a long time about what to give the pessimist and gave him a wooden horse for his birthday - a good, wooden horse. And they decided to play a trick on the optimist and put horse manure near his bed. A negative child gets up in the morning and looks sadly at his horse and says: “Here again they gave the wrong color horse, it doesn’t ride, it needs to be carried. What should I do now and where should I put it now in my small room?” The parents were upset, it didn’t work out again. What about the optimist? Will he be upset? The optimist says: “Cool, they gave me a real live horse. There was even some manure left, so she probably went for a walk.”
Thus, positive thinking will give you joy and self-confidence. By managing your consciousness and increasing the positive qualities of a person, focusing on the beautiful and positive, you fill your life with these very components. And negative thoughts are becoming less and less.
Once you consistently apply this principle to your daily life and begin to manage your consciousness, turning every event into a positive, empowering one, you will be free from worry forever. You will no longer be a prisoner of your past. Instead, you become the architect of your future.
Mastering your mind begins with the ability to control every thought that comes into your head. When you develop the ability to detach yourself from all unworthy thoughts and learn to concentrate only on positive and useful ones, you will begin to perform positive and useful actions. Soon everything positive and useful will begin to come into your life on its own.
Concentration.
If you want to strengthen your arm muscles to become stronger, then you need to train them. If you want to make your leg muscles firm, you must first tense them. In the same way, your consciousness will begin to work miracles - but only if you allow it to do so. It will give you everything you want in your life once you learn to manage it effectively. Training your mind requires daily exercise.
One of them is the ability to concentrate on your thoughts , unraveling the mystery of his life. Most of us live at such a frantic pace that real silence and stillness sometimes become something alien and uncomfortable. Most people, upon hearing these words, will say that they do not have time to sit and look at a flower. These same people will say that they don’t have time to just enjoy the laughter of their children or run barefoot in the rain. They will say they are too busy for such things. They don't even have friends, because friends also take time.
Set aside 10-20 minutes daily forcontemplative exercises
. All that is required during this period is to concentrate all your attention on one object. It could be a flower, a candle or any other object. This exercise must be done in complete silence and preferably in nature. Look at the object closely. Pay attention to color, structure and shape. Enjoy the smell and think only about this beautiful creature in front of you. First, other thoughts will come to you, distracting you from the object. This is a sign of an untrained mind. Try not to be distracted by any thoughts.
By practicing the exercise for 21 days, your consciousness will become stronger and more manageable and you will master the principle of mind control.
You realize that every moment is a miracle and a mystery and you have the power to comprehend it.
Visualization.
Our mind thinks in images. Images influence our self-image, and this idea determines how we feel, how we act, and how we go towards our goals. If you see yourself as too young to succeed in the legal profession, or too old to change your habits, then you will never achieve these goals. If you see in your mind that a life of meaning, happiness and physical perfection is only reserved for people in a different circle than you, then this will eventually become your reality.
But if vivid images flash across the wide screen of your consciousness, wonderful things will begin to happen in your life. Einstein said that“imagination is more important than knowledge” . Every day you must devote some time, even just a few minutes, to this creative foresight. Imagine yourself in the image of who you want to become, no matter who it is - a successful entrepreneur, a loving mother or a responsible citizen of society. The secret of visualization is that with the help of positive images we influence consciousness.
The magic of imagination can be applied in many situations. It can be used to help you navigate a court case more effectively, improve your relationships with others, and develop your own spirituality. Our consciousness has a magnetic power to attract into our lives everything we desire. If there is something missing in our lives, it is because it is missing in our ideas. We must preserve beautiful pictures before the eyes of our imagination. Even a single negative image can poison the mind.Visualization is a magnetic power of consciousness that can bring spiritual and material wealth.
The power of imagination, as well as positive thinking and concentration, require constant training. Mind control takes time. And it’s worth starting with regular meditation every day. As soon as these three methods become a daily practice, you will master the skill of managing your thoughts, your consciousness and your mind. If you control your mind, you control your life. And once you are in complete control of your own life, you become the master of your destiny.

How can we control our thoughts? This is an inseparable part of our consciousness that accompanies us throughout our lives. A bunch of thoughts in your head can be multidirectional. It has long been known that negativity can not only ruin your mood for the whole day, but also set our whole life in a negative mood.
Therefore, each of us must learn to manage our thoughts. You can remain alone with your problems and continue to eat yourself out of your gut. Or you can take control of your thoughts into your own hands and try to change their course, set yourself up in a positive way, and the ugly pile of thoughts in your head will turn into a neat “cabinet”. This can very seriously affect your life and change it for the better.
It is not without reason that they say that any thought is material, it attracts events and is capable of influencing our destiny, therefore the extent to which we control them shows our degree of control over our own lives.
Nobody wants the events happening around them to be negative, so once a bunch of thoughts in your head are under your control, it will undoubtedly have a huge impact on what is happening. Therefore, the ability to organize your consciousness is one of the most important things that everyone needs to acquire.
Causes of a negative mental attitude
But first we need to figure out what can lead us to a negative attitude. The most striking reason for this is an unorganized pile of thoughts in the head. In addition, according to psychologists, there are several more objective reasons for a negative attitude in life.
Presentation: "How to manage stress"
Among them are:
- A style of behavior formed over the course of life, formed on the basis of four types of behavioral reactions, the most common of which is critical. The habit of criticizing everyone and everything can lead to a lot of thoughts accumulating in the head and most of them are negative;
- Inability to set goals and achieve them, despite obstacles. The formation of this criterion is most influenced by the environment, because it is people who most often influence our mood;
- Low self-esteem and lack of self-confidence. This is due to the life position and character formed on the basis of upbringing;
- Examples of negative experiences from the past and from the lives of others. Such examples stop a person's striving because we are afraid of the repetition of negative emotions;
- Lack of support at a difficult moment, if a person is left alone with his problems, sooner or later they take over him entirely.
Control over your own thoughts
Once we realize how to control our thoughts, we are able to change everything that happens for the better. Everyone can be happy and successful. After all, it is with recommendations to take everything into your own hands and realize that a bunch of thoughts in your head leads to a loss of control over your own life, and that most trainings that teach how to build order in your thoughts begin.
Presentation: "I am learning to manage my behavior"
However, it is simple to say, it is much more difficult to do all this. There are several simple tips about how to put your consciousness in order. If you follow such recommendations, the pile of thoughts in your head will become smaller or turn into a neat pile.
So, to learn how to maintain order in your thoughts you need to:
- You need to stand firmly on your chosen path. Don't let anything get you down. Of course, you shouldn’t give up the pleasant opportunity to dream, but you shouldn’t forget about your chosen goals. Even if now the path to achieving your goal is not visible, over time it will appear quite clearly if you always remember what you are striving to achieve. You need to clearly understand that a jumbled pile of thoughts in your head leads to disorder in your life;
- It is necessary to live in the present moment. We must not let the past dominate us, and exclude as much as possible all the “ifs” and “what would have been.” Past experience should certainly be taken into account, but in no case should it be put above the present. The same applies to the future, making plans is an important step towards your goal, but if these plans are divorced from the present, then nothing will work out;
- The most important aspect of thoughts should be the present moment, we need to pay attention to the little things happening around us and allow ourselves to be distracted from internal “soul-searching”; this will become possible only if a bunch of thoughts in our head come to a certain order.
Our whole life consists of pleasant little things, and if you learn to pay attention to them and not pass by, then it will turn out that there is much less unpleasant stuff around, and all problems will fade into the background.
Of course, none of us is immune from serious experiences, but it will be much easier to survive them if you pay less attention to them. At the same time, there will be much fewer serious problems if we do not “call” them.
We often say that “thought is material”; it is precisely this property that very often leads to problems. If a bunch of thoughts swarm randomly in your head, then the subconscious will snatch out pieces, scraps that do not have their own clear structure, hence life will be just as fragmentary and unclear.
