I can do it but I've never trained in meditation. The yapping stops but then I feel weird not thinking thoughts "outloud". It makes be feel like an animal, tbh. Lol

Is it all the way silent or are there a different layer of kinda quieter meta-thoughts about how you're not thinking thoughts rn?

[-] Lemminary@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Oh yeah, it's complete silence unless I accidentally read something or a thought slips through.

That's great! Not that you asked for advice, but the other pieces of enlightenment are (1) work on really broad awareness at the edges of your senses - distant sounds, the weight of your clothes, edges of your vision (2) a joyful gratitude for everything you see / experience. Try doing all of that at once, while on a walk or whatever

Will try it, thanks! Definitely need that today. ๐Ÿ™

To me this sounds more like using your intuition or something to "think" faster than you could say the words in your head. I do it sometimes and saying the thoughts afterwards in English is like the slo-mo repeat version

That's a good way to put it, like an animal. Aware but without reflection, chatter, analysis etc.
