This show is for everyone who doesn't want to go "back to normal" but rather wants to create a new normal, a better way of living. Every week, we'll unpack confusion so we can love what it offers us, dismantle our minds so we can live more from our hearts and practice being comfortable in the discomfort of not knowing. Time to get real.

The Findings - #3 Meditation is not about the elimination of your thoughts.

The mind’s job is to think. It’s like a manufacturing warehouse, churning out thoughts all day and all night. When we go to sleep, the mind is still creating thoughts - your thoughts, my thoughts, everybody’s thoughts. I believe they swirl around at night while we’re asleep, waiting. Then when you wake up – sometimes before you even open your eyes – they come rushing in! Thoughts, thoughts and more thoughts! So meditation is NOT about stopping thoughts. They’re here to stay. Also, meditation is very quick with the impact it has on the body. Though I left Kyle Cease's retreat and returned to Anchorage feeling very depressed, by Day 8 of my experiment I was feeling better. My mind was still blown to pieces, but I noted in that video that I felt better.
From the book, "The Confusion Experiment."
