Getting out of the mind is easy to do, hard to teach…
Mainly because the words are misleading: you don’t want to control your mind, you can’t. You want to control and direct your attention. Your mind is not controllable… But your attention is.
Once you get the hang of it… have an experience outside of your mind, life starts to open up.
The trick is not to try to change your thoughts… that would still trap you in the mind. Or change your fear… or change your desire… or change anything.
What works is to take your attention off the mind and put it on something, anything, in the present. My favorite is to download the Heaven on Earth and follow the path of the energy bundle through the 40 stops. It goes slowly, and it does work on all the 40 locations in the body: removing blockages, one after the other. I don’t remember where I teach the stops… so I may have to recreate it… I’ll add it to this post. Email me if you want it.
Another way to move your attention off the mind is to do the “find your feet” exercise… search the site to find it… I share it in some other article.
A third way is to start examining minutely your hand… you can even do that while you talk to someone, or listen to a lecture…

- And the Positive Thinking people say: if you can turn everything into its opposite, or just avoid saying anything negative, you’ll be happy, and blah blah blah…
