Let the mind do whatever it's going to do. Hey, okay, if the mind wants to judge right now, let it judge. If the mind wants to be all crazy, let it be all crazy. Because the natural state of the water, when there is no waves and there is no wind, there is no tornadoes coming through, the natural state of the water is calm. The only time it's not is when waves come.

Just chilling, just looking around. The only time they're really pissed off is if they're tired, if they're hungry, or if they are messy, that's it. So the secret to the mind, the secret to calming the mind is to stop trying to control it all the time and stop battling with it. Stop trying to resist it, stop fighting it, let it do what it's gonna do.

Eventually, if you stop fighting it, it will calm down. If you're anxious, cool. Be anxious for five minutes. But just breathe through it. Detach yourself from the anxiousness for a minute. Detach yourself from the fear for a minute. Just breathe for the next five minutes.

You know, for me, one thing that I realized years ago is that I wake up and the second I wake up, I feel really anxious a lot of times. And I used to hate, I used to fight, I used to try to figure out ways to try to work past my anxiousness. I would try to do rituals, I would try to do everything else to try to calm it down. Now I just allow it. I've come to realize

that your cortisol is at your highest the moment that you wake up for most people. That's usually the thing that actually wakes you up is your cortisol. Cortisol is a stress hormone, so it makes sense you're going to be the most stressed and anxious the moment you wake up. And so I found that if I fought it and if I resisted it, the anxiousness would stay longer.

So instead of me being just anxious for the first five minutes of waking up, it'd be like the first two or three hours, sometimes even longer. But when I just let the mind, when I'm just like, oh, hold on, I feel really freaking anxious right now. Instead of being like, oh my God, I just woke up, this sucks. I'm like, okay, be anxious. No big deal. If the mind wants to be anxious, not me.
