To think of things that aren't happening as disturbing is to create an experience that's a preoccupation that keeps us from actually noticing what's happening
In this episode of 'Mental Obsession Discussion / Emotional Sobriety,' hosts Mark and Lensis dive into the intricate relationship between obsessive thinking and emotional sobriety. They explore how compulsive behaviours and obsessive thoughts can distort reality, leading to stress, anxiety, and depression. The conversation shifts towards understanding how recognising these patterns can help dissolve the mental turmoil associated with addiction.
Mark shares personal anecdotes about his struggles with anger and how recognising his obsessive thoughts has been a pivotal part of his recovery journey. Lensis brings in perspectives on how addiction often feels like a solution when it's actually the problem itself, highlighting the importance of awareness in breaking free from this cycle.
The hosts also discuss the concept of shared reality versus individual reality, emphasising that true connection comes from recognising our collective experience rather than isolating ourselves in our thoughts. This episode is a deep dive into understanding how our thoughts shape our reality and the importance of emotional sobriety in achieving a balanced life. Tune in to gain valuable insights and practical advice on managing obsessive thinking and embracing a more peaceful existence.
