Dear Friends,
Sometime ago I began a process of ‘noticing my thoughts’. I had realized that my mind generated a large number of thoughts in any moment, and that this was not helping me.
I wondered if there was a way to ‘quiet my mind’.
I began to develop a method, through spiritual guidance, to do so.
One thing that was fascinating that I noticed as I began to work with my thoughts, was that many of them were conflicting. One belief or line of thinking, conflicted with another, over and over.
Crystallized Thought Forms
What I realized in working with myself, is that ‘thought forms’ became ‘hardened’ or ‘crystallized’ in my thinking, over time.
Once taken in, usually subconsciously, my mind would assume a thought form was true, and not necessarily compare it to any other beliefs, convictions or experiences.
This is because a lot of thought forms come from every day activity, where we are not engaged in critically observing what we are absorbing: the culture - movies, TV shows, music, our upbringing and interactions in community, what we were taught in school.
We end up with a collection of thoughts about how the world is, that weren’t initially ours. Many, we learn them through second hand information or experience.
Some of these can be very important, like key learning from our parents, but many of the random messages and information that we are exposed to (random lines from songs, advertising exhorting us to buy something because…) are ultimately garbage.
When we are subconsciously receiving these bits of information, our mind does not know or critically assess the difference between the garbage and what’s really important, between what is false, and what is true.
Breaking through the Patterns
By developing a process of noticing my thoughts, I would then bring the thought to consciousness and consider it:
How did I learn this? (And then a process of remembering.)
Do I now agree with this thought? (And then a process of considering.)
Then I developed a spiritual process of burning the thought in a transmuting fire (such as ‘the violet flame’ that transmute energy to neutral, or burning it with the fire of the Holy Spirit, to transmute it in alignment with the Highest Good.)
Sometimes I ‘give it to God’, that can be the fastest and quickest way to move on.
Many times when I considered the source of a thought, it might be a movie, a song, an experience I grew out of.
Many times I would notice that thought 1 could not be true if thought 2, which I subsequently developed, was also true. Then I would have to make a decision, what do I believe or agree with in this situation?
This is the way I healed my mind from over thinking.
As I began to reject thoughts from snippets of songs, movies, advertisements, random advice, books I’d read, a long lost friend’s opinions, and so on, that did not benefit me and that I did not need or agree with, the chatter in my mind became lower and lower, less and less.
I was healing.
My mind was relaxing, because now I gave it a job. That job was to observe the world around me, assist me in the process of living, and think through things when I chose to analyze something, consciously.
Now when I hear - read - observe something, I do my best to assess in the moment to choose mentally whether I agree or not, and either tell my mind no (no I don’t need to remember or absorb this), or otherwise decide how it fits in my world.
Social media is a whole new area of influencing our minds in this way, and I’m developing new processes of mind to deal with the vast and fast influx of information this can create, because it happens so fast, it’s almost difficult to track it in the way I was able to from the slower paced media we had growing up as Gen X. These recommendations will be in an upcoming article.
Crystallized Thought Forms Video Transcript
I summarize the explanation of how crystallized thought forms work and how they interfere over time with proper functioning of the mind, in the video clip, above.
Here is the transcript:
We have a mental construct (in our minds) and I'm not saying that it's one that makes sense. I'm just saying it's: ‘Thought A, B, C, D, conclusion.’
I'll just call that a crystallized thought pattern.
So many of us have these crystallized thought patterns and they are at opposing ends of the spectrum of wholeness in our consciousness.
(Meaning, the thoughts are in contradiction with each other to where both thoughts cannot represent ‘the truth’ at the same time.)
Okay, so I'm getting deep with you here.
This is (in my view a form of) mental illness that these thought forms are being created at extreme polarities.
And they all these extremes can't all be true at their extreme polarized state.
They turn into each other.

Do you have this experience?
Have you worked to calm your mind?
What process did you use or what helped you?
