Have you ever noticed that the more you think about something bad, the more it seems to happen? It's like feeding a monster inside us. This happens because negativity feeds on itself and, if it is not stopped, it sucks up all of your mental energy. For those seeking inner peace, this is one of the biggest barriers. Imagine that each negative thought is a closed door to joy. And the more doors you close, the less light comes in. And what many people don't realize is that these thoughts don't just appear out of nowhere. They have deep roots in past experiences, unresolved traumas, or even external influences. For example, someone who grew up hearing that they were “not good enough” may internalize this and see the world through this filter. This is the trap of the negative cycle: it hides behind habits, beliefs, and even old memories, like a silent shadow. Buddha’s teachings speak precisely about freeing ourselves from this shadow, about understanding that thoughts are not who we are. But how can we escape this cycle? A useful practice that comes from Buddhism is mindfulness. It teaches us to observe our thoughts without getting involved with them. Think about it: what if, instead of getting lost in negative thoughts, you could simply watch them pass by, like clouds in the sky? This creates a healthy distance. Let’s face it, it’s not easy, but it’s extremely liberating. For example, the next time a negative thought arises, instead of fighting it, try observing it and asking yourself: “Why are you here? What do you really want to tell me?” It’s also common for these thoughts to connect with the environment in which we live. Have you ever noticed how, in chaotic, stressful or negative environments, your mind tends to be more negative? Sometimes, the cycle of negativity is not only internal, but is strongly linked to the people we live with, the news we watch or the place where we work. In this case, an important step is to limit these influences, creating a healthier mental environment. Turn off news that only brings anxiety, avoid unnecessary arguments and seek the company of those who uplift you. The key to breaking this cycle begins in the mind, but also extends to daily actions. Buddha teaches us that everything is interconnected, and one thought feeds the next. If you start the day with a positive thought, even a small one, it can transform the rest of your day. So, try this practice: when you wake up, give thanks for three things, no matter how small. It could be the comfort of your bed, the morning breeze or the fact that you are alive. This helps to nourish the mind with positivity and gradually break the cycle of negative thoughts. ???? SUBSCRIBE! ???? LIKE! ???? SHARE! #buddhism #zenbuddhism #buddhistteachings
