Reflection: Shower

A good time to watch it talk is while you’re taking a shower. Just watch what that voice has to say. You will see that it never lets you just take peaceful shower. Your shower is for washing the body, not for watching the mind talk nonstop. See if you can stay conscious enough throughout the entire experience to be aware of what’s going on. You’ll be shocked by what you see. It just jumps from one subject to the next. The incessant chatter seems so neurotic that you won’t believe that it’s always that way. But it is.

The Untethered Soul (the journey beyound yourself) by Michael A. Singer

Remember reading this book for the first time in 2020, I was so grateful that I did. After reading this book and this message, I clearly noticed the voice in my head for the first time in my shower in Aug 2020. It was the first eye-opening moment for me, and it was so powerful that I started to sob right when I noticed it in the shower.

I noticed how much that voice had never been stopping, and after 40-something years I realized it was there. And it was not me.

Today, I still notice that voice. I still noticed that it was very good at making me believe that it was me. Harder situations happened in my life and each time the situation taught me that that voice is very clever at disguising itself and making me believe that it was me. Each time, I learned to drop this voice as quickly as I realized what it was. Peace starts to grow in me even in a difficult situation that I’m in.

Life gives you what you need to be able to grow… And I believe that it is true.
