How to stop my mind instantly?

You see, many times the flow of thoughts is so powerful and fast that you find it very difficult to stop it. You find it very difficult to get relax. Then your so called techniques also does not work. Suppose if you close your eyes and start watching your breath then you will get irritate. The more you try to focus on the breath more you get distracted by the thoughts. Sometimes mind becomes very uncontrollable and powerful.

In this kind of situation just close yourself in the room and keep your eyes open. Stand in the middle of the room. Look around in 360 degree and observe the walls. You are enclosed in the room and all around you there is a wall. This is your reality. Then look down at the floor, feel the weight of your body on the floor. Feel your abdomen, come up feel your breathing, just for a moment. Don't try to focus on anything, because focusing is the problem in this kind of situation. Just roll your eyes and look at the top of your head, at the roof. This is your reality.

Reality means you can see it, you can touch it, you can feel it. Stay with reality. Again repeat the cycle. Look at the walls, don't go outside of the room. Just be in the room. If mind wanders here and there, just bring it to the reality, bring it back into the room. Tell your mind to do anything it wants but you stay in the room. Feel your body, look at the walls, look at the floor, feel the weight of your body, feel your abdomen, feel your breathing, look at the roof and feel the reality. Stay with the reality. Be rooted in the reality and let the mind wander anywhere. Keep touch with the reality.

You will find that the mind will get calm and relax in few moments. You can also do this experiment while walking on the road. Be in touch with the reality, look at people, look at the sky, feel the earth, feel your breathing, feel the movements of you body, again repeat the cycle. There is no need to focus on a particular thing or a problem. Just feel yourself in the moment and the mind will disappear in the thin air.

When you are connected with the reality the mind can not exist. All your tensions and worries can happen only in a trance like state, in a dreamy state. You can not live in a dream like state when you try to be in touch with reality. If you do this consistently while doing any activity then you will automatically remain in a no- mind state. Then you will look at everything, every situation with equanimity. Then there will be no tensions and worries in your life.

Whenever your mind get disturbed, know that you have lost the touch with the reality. Again touch the wall, feel the floor, feel you breathing, look around and get connected with the reality. And within few moments you will wake up from a dreamlike state of mind which was bothering you. You can do this anywhere. Nobody will notice it.

When you are angry your voice will raise, look at your voice and it will come down. When you get anxious and panic just look at your breathing and it is shallow, just note this and you will automatically breath deeply. Just try this in every situation and see what happens. You will learn how to control your mind smoothly and effortlessly.
