Letting Go of Thoughts

One of the most valuable lessons Lindeblad learned during his time as a Buddhist forest monk is the ability to let go of thoughts. He describes this as a 'superpower' that everyone possesses but often loses sight of. By turning attention away from thoughts and focusing on something simpler, like breathing, one can create a healing break from inner chaos. This practice helps in realizing that while we have thoughts, we are not our thoughts. Lindeblad underscores the importance of not being hypnotized by every passing thought and learning to direct attention towards more calming and grounding experiences.
