Why do you think it's important to be aware of our thoughts and feelings?

[el_Te_de_la_Rosa]

To me, being aware of what's inside my head means to be able to control what I am going to say and do. It's "Sati" in Buddhism.

Think - Analyze - Differentiate

When we receive our own Awakening we will be aware of those kind of things and consciousness Awakening like meditation or tranquility are in State of mind body soul unto are spiritual paths with feathers forms within beliefs that will go feathers then the ones that is taught to us today in churches.

I guess it's a good thing if your thoughts and feelings are positive. But if they are negative, then what's the point of thinking about them? It will only cause more negativity.

[el_Te_de_la_Rosa]

Well, if it's negative, I will consider if I really need to express that. Maybe I should change the tone and make it constructive.
Like when someone's rude to me and I get upset. To respond with anger would increase the heat.

[Jamie05rhs]

@el_Te_de_la_Rosa Oh; well, that's true.
I was just thinking of personal feelings that we keep to ourselves.

[el_Te_de_la_Rosa]

Ah. I see your point. That sounds perfectly fine.

[Jamie05rhs]

We also know this as mindfulness. It is important to be aware of one’s surroundings and to self check one’s mental and emotional state in order to monitor potential mental health issues which may distract from the things which are important in one’s life.

[el_Te_de_la_Rosa]

You're right! I actually pulled a card out from the Mindful Talk. It's designed for kids. But I think it's a good question for adults too.

I believe its important to be aware of our thoughts and feelings because its shapes what you see. It shapes the vision of the world. Do you have negative thoughts/feelings, you most likely see everything as negative. You have positive thoughts/feelings, then most likely also a positive view on the world

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Thoughts produce feelings and habits and habits determine the kind of life you will live.

[el_Te_de_la_Rosa]

Interesting. I think that's what most men or logical people would be. Well, there are some who are impulsive, driven by feelings and then thinking.
