Dammit Mo I thought that voice was my soul! Over time that soul voice does start to become more than a whisper, and drowns out the noise of the head. Great article and wonderful suggestions. Thanks for leading the way! 🙏❤️

Thank you, brother! It's amazing how our true voice can emerge and guide us, silencing the noise of the mind. I'm glad you found the article helpful!

Thank you for summarizing this so well, Mo. I’m a thinker by nature and I struggled with mental chatter for years. Now in my 50s, I’ve been purposefully seeking out my true self and denying my ego, largely by practicing contemplation and seeking stillness and silence. Connecting with nature helps me the most. I love that you name the voices - I’ve just begun to do that too! It’s a great way to remind ourselves that if we can observe (and name) our thoughts, i.e. Think about our thoughts, then we are not our thoughts!!

Connecting with nature for stillness is a great tip, and naming the voices is a fantastic way to detach from them. Keep up the great work, Korie!

Ooh yeah, l call my ego Grumph … l have learned she just wants me to protect her … she is an aspect of the soul’s choice to have a human experience, so yes, l try to silence her but l won’t negate her, that’s why she starts chattering in the first place, conditioned unworthiness. Thanks for writing this post Mo.

Who you shall listen to? And the more bedazzling question is who is listening?

That’s an interesting and much bigger question 😃

Yet another soulful & wholesome essay, Mo! This one in particular needs to be visited again & again. I would love to recommend a short 15 minutes meditation practice that I do often & I feel you and other readers of your publication will enjoy it too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EwQkfoKxRvo
