That was me venting, venting about the oddess.
I find myself crying for no logical reason. I tried your introspection, and of course there are things to fix in the long term, but I can’t do them right this instant. Thinking sucks anyway, it makes my head hurt. [/quote]
trick is to focus on nothing at first. Literally. Maybe light a candle in a dark room and focus on the flame and think of only that flame. Sounds corny but it works. Do this every night. Particularly when you need to relax. Note the time you begin and try to go for as long as you can without thinking about anything except that flame. It’ll be very difficult at first.[/quote]
This is actually why I love BJJ so much. It’s really hard for me to not think. I spend all day alone in a dark room with a microscope and a computer, thinking is all I do. When you’re rolling though, you can’t think, you can’t even think about what you have to do to win, you can only do. It’s a great feeling, to be moving purely on instinct. I can’t get there in a room alone, I’ve tried. The only other place is occasionally in the weight room when there’s something really heavy trying to crush me. [/quote]
Try what I suggested … focus on something … the flame works best for me and focus intensely on that thing … on every aspect of it … and like I said start small and work your way up in time … it takes patience and practice
