Dear Lily:

My foot is better, but the heavy snow, in the process of freezing and melting, makes it so that walking outside is most difficult and quite scary.

Again, I like reading your recent post. It is congruent with you being engaged in healing, it is a delight for me to witness this happening.

Don’t worry about repeating yourself. I repeat myself also. Every time I do, I add something, or subtract something, so it is not an exact repetition.

Regarding thoughts, there are guided meditations about imagining thoughts entering through a window and exiting through another window, or a door. I listened to such but don’t know how to locate it. It may help you. The nature of thinking and time is such that we can’t distract yourself long enough or of the enough (“like doing something else, going for a walk etc”) to not think because we only need a few seconds available to think a thought.

I think.. that if you are no longer scared of your thoughts, you are less likely to think those thoughts, or to be alarmed by them.
