I can't help it and I over think. I analyze what I read, what I hear and what I see. I think about everything. The problem is that thinking lets me down.

Mankind has been given a precarious ability in his survival path that expands far beyond the tenets of nature. We add the ability to create, render, believe, consider and doubt and judge. Those are special gifts given only to mankind. We can accept as true any philosophy, attitude, and viewpoint we want in spite of what someone else may think and say or do. The rest of the kingdoms of nature do not operate with that freedom. They operate ON instinct in their environment. It's much more black and white. There is no time to think in nature. Response is immediate and the consequences direct. Eat or be eaten.

This thinking ability can result in some bizarre actions and sorting those out produce turmoil in our life. Why do we display fear when confronted with situations that are not dangerous? Why do we fear things in the environment that pose no danger?

We think from three basic inputs:

Genetic Tendency
Collective Mind
The Other Song

Since we are a combination of our parents we inherit many of their physical characteristics and except for thinking. We think for ourselves, we want to be individual and not a copy of our parents.

Another powerful source of thinking is the Collective Mind. What the leadership in the family, and group think and along with all humanity. It intrudes into every mind and fosters mind sets.

It appears there is another input into human psyche that plays a part in our thinking. Dr Rajan Sankaran, prominent world homeopath calls this part of mind The Other Song This song is not human, it vibrates from the mineral, plant and or animal kingdoms that are still attached to the mind of past experience. When stimulated these songs can lead the mind and create human activity over which we have no control.

Thinking can lead you astray from any of these inputs. Learning the skill to not think can clear the unwanted debris and along with illusion and delusion. Then nature reveals truth. I learned meditation as one model to help me with over thinking.

My name is Bill Tallmon. 25 years ago I made a decision to eliminate medical doctors and drugs from my life. The Natural Health credentials I earned (ND, PhD) helped me become my own doctor and do away with the MD and drugs. I believe that you can do the same. I am creating a set of natural health treasures based ON my successful journey. I learned to control the pain, weight loss or gain, energy, relationships and mental instability and avert the medical crisis that leads to a medical doctor's drugs and interventions. (beyourowndoc and under construction) is a drug free nature cure approach to the issues of health care. You can find out more. Visit http://embracingnature.net for now.
