#7 Thinking (53:19) Our capacity to think truly sets us apart from other life forms on the planet. But how much are we the master of our thinking or how much does our thinking master us? Psychological research tells us we think on the average 40-50,000 thoughts per day as a conservative estimate. Many of these thoughts are variations of familiar themes which populate our mind. These themes can serve us or not on our life path. Or perhaps they served us at one point, but have outlived their usefulness. The good news is that we have the capacity to examine our thoughts and the tools to change those that have overstayed their welcome. Few people, however, develop the skills to be objective enough to achieve even the simplest level of mental mastery. This class by Jim Morningstar, PhD, Director of InWellness, will give you the opportunity to practice powerful and effective tools on your thinking patterns that can have a profound influence on your life satisfaction.
