Healing the self through meditation

Cognitive psychology tells us that our feelings are the result of our way of thinking

- DR. SACHIN PARAB

Since we are the ones who create our thoughts, this means we, and not other people or situations, are responsible for how we feel. If I am feeling hurt, I create that feeling. In the same way, I can heal myself by changing the way I think. Healing begins in the mind when we take responsibility for our thoughts, words, emotions, and actions. All the emotional wounds we carry have been created by us, and we have the power to heal them.

Our state of mind determines how we feel about anything. I was once addressing the employees of a private firm and they said that they felt stressed because the company did not grant them leave from work. They would feel better if they could get more holidays, they said. I told them that if you are holy, then every day is a holiday. A holiday is a state of mind, not a place to be visited.
