Why Your Mind Won't Stop Talking to Itself - Alan Watts

#alanwatts #ocd #consciousness Why Your Mind Won't Stop Talking to Itself - Alan Watts on the Internal Dialogue There's an endless stream of internal chatter running inside your head—constant commentary, evaluation, planning, narration about everything. It never stops. Even now, there's probably a voice commenting on these words. In this profound lecture, Alan Watts reveals why your mind insists on this compulsive talking to itself, who is talking to whom, and why the only way to quiet it is to stop trying. 🔑 WHAT THE INTERNAL VOICE IS ACTUALLY DOING: Narrating - giving you play-by-play commentary on your own life Evaluating - constantly judging everything as good/bad, pleasant/unpleasant Planning and rehearsing - imagining scenarios, preparing speeches you'll never give Maintaining identity - reminding you who you are, your story, your beliefs Trying to control - believing if it thinks enough, it can make life safe and predictable Creating anxiety - worrying about future, regretting past, avoiding present Defending the ego - protecting and promoting the separate self it believes you to be Never stopping - continuing whether you need it or not, whether you want it or not Alan Watts (1915-1973) was a British philosopher who brought Eastern wisdom to Western audiences. His teachings on the nature of mind, consciousness, and the liberation from compulsive thinking continue to help people recognize the difference between themselves and their thoughts. 💡 WHY IT WON'T STOP: The mind talks constantly because it's trying to maintain control over life. It believes if it just thinks about things enough, analyzes them enough, plans for them enough, it can control what happens. It's trying to make life safe, predictable, manageable. But here's the problem: it doesn't work. All this thinking doesn't actually give you control. Life continues to unfold in unpredictable ways. Yet the mind keeps talking, keeps trying, keeps believing that if it just thinks harder, worries more thoroughly, it will finally achieve the control it seeks. Like someone in a boat pushing on the mast trying to move the boat—tremendous effort, no movement. The mind believes it's separate from life, that it can think about life from some position outside of life. But this is an illusion. The mind is not separate from life—it's part of life. All this thinking is life thinking about itself, and it's fundamentally unnecessary. 🙏 Subscribe for more Alan Watts wisdom on freeing yourself from compulsive thinking, recognizing what you are beneath mental noise, and discovering the peace that thinking has been seeking but could never find through thinking itself. 💬 CAN YOU HEAR IT?
