“Just as you clip your nails, you need to periodically clip the negative thoughts from your mind.”
- Dr. Amit Sood, author of The Mayo Clinic Guide to Stress-Free Living
As Dr. Amit Sood explains in The Mayo Clinic Guide to Stress-Free Living, the mind, unlike other parts of the body, does not have an excretory system. “Mountains of negative thoughts pile up inside it. Just as you clip your nails, you need to periodically clip the negative thoughts from your mind.” Journaling and meditation help me clear out the “gunk” that has accumulated in my mind, allowing me to reset myself.
What negative thoughts do you need to clear from your mind today so that you can reset yourself?
Interesting analogy. I've got some "clipping" to do!
