Laura Bushnell wrote:” the untrained mind is held back by all the negative thoughts that are clamoring about inside.”

     This is the Monkey Mind that Maria Nemeth discussed in her book “The Energy of Money”.We are better served when our minds are still and quiet so that we can listen to our hearts. Bushnell continues: How can a whisper of truth or understanding find its way in when there is already such noise and disharmony going on in the mind?

     When we are stuck in the mind, it’s easy to get caught up in analyzing things, viewing them in a positive or negative way. The mind has been taught to operate in a mode of fear and anticipation. It loves to have problems to analyze.

     Every problem has a solution, but one can rarely find it by holding on to a problem and going over and over it in one’s mind.
