Hi friends, welcome to “Snehha Ke Vichar”.
A couple of days back I was having a discussion with my mentor about fitness.
The
discussion went from physical fitness to mental fitness.
I was
happily telling him about how I got back to my fitness regime and about my
diet.
He was
telling me about his.
Later, he
asked me this is about your physical health, what about your mental health?
I said as you told me, I read books digitally and watch some content too.
That’s a
good thing he said, we all are blessed to be in technology era where we get
what we want at just one click.
But tell me
what will happen if you eat junk food?
I said my
health will go on toss. There is no use of me working out then.
It is more like garbage.
To this he
said, but at time we tend to eat that, don’t we?
I said yes,
but I make sure that I workout rigorously the next day to remove that garbage
out of my body.
He said
this was about physical health.
And you are
following it the right way.
But what
about the junk that we feed our mind?
I quite did not understand what he was trying to say.
I asked him
what he was exactly trying to teach me.
He started
explaining me.
In the
technology era we have easy access to everything.
But we all
are either eating junk (or the garbage as you said) or over eating.
Both are
harmful.
We should
stop consuming irrelevant contents that are no longer helping us in anyway in
our lives.
This is a
waste of time for sure but at the same time it is unhealthy to our mind. Our
subconscious mind is getting filled with such garbage.
And it is the subconscious mind that is 90% responsible for whatever happens in our lives.
At the same
time if we over feed it with lots of information we end up following nothing.
Because one
information might tell us something while the other might ask us not to do
that.
So in this
case we do not know who and what to follow.
Hence
consume less and relatable things that will keep our mind healthy and
eventually our life happy.
Yes I know that we all are in technology era and that our most of the time goes in either working on a laptop or checking our phones.
But let us
try and reduce it.
May be
instead of reading digitally why not try to read it physically.
Instead of
wasting our time watching shorts and then keep scrolling for hours or binge
watching some sort of series, Let us spend time with family and loved ones and
have a deep conversations which can get us more closer to each other.
Have a long
walk,
Or spend time with ourselves and have a conversation with ourselves.
It is in
our hands to let that garbage in. Or even it as got in try to take that garbage
out by meditating.
And I got my learning that day. So from then I started scrolling consciously and not letting any kind a garbage or junk get into my mind.
How did you
find this learning, do let me know in the comments.
