YOUR THOUGHTS ARE NOT YOURS
Understanding the Signal Beneath the Noise

Thoughts feel personal. They feel definitive. But beneath their urgency lies something far less fixed, patterns of energy interpreted through the ever-changing lens of our internal state. When we learn to recognize the difference between the signal and the story we assign to it, we begin to loosen the grip thoughts were never meant to have. Here to explain is Dr. Rob Pace.

Your thoughts are not yours.
Your brain doesn't build them like it's a factory, it receives them like it's a radio.

Thoughts exist as patterns of energy.
And our brain takes those and creates certain experiences, internal experiences with them. And it does it in the same way that it does with our typical five senses.

Energy comes in, it gets transduced by a specific thing into a specific signal.
It's just the transducer for thought is a little more complicated, and therefore the signal is less stable.

So when we see a table, it appears as the same table time after time.
And when other people see that table, they experience it in roughly the same way.

But our thoughts appear wildly different and changing moment to moment.
And that's because our internal state is giving them different character and plot lines and tones and settings.

Our emotional state is what determines the tuning.
And once you understand how that works, it becomes so much easier to navigate. ∎
