The Power of Thought

No one teaches you how to think.



It's the most important tool in our lives, and no one teaches us.

I remember sitting on the coach once, nursing twin girls at the same time, watching my 18mo son playing on the floor, and I heard my thoughts...

I actually think that was the first time that I truly HEARD my thoughts...

It was so vivid, and a little scary.

It was mean too... Like, dark!!

It scared me. I called my doctor and said: "I might have a problem"

Turned out it was postpartum depression and neurosis.

I never heard of such a thing. The doctor called me in and in less than 3 hours from that phone call, I was pumping pills in my system to call those thoughts down.

Neurosis...

Hormones can do interesting things with our bodies.

But what caught my attention is that, about 6 months or so I was able to get out of the depression medication and go on with my life.

The dark thoughts were gone, but now I was able to hear everything else that was in my mind.
