Fun Fact About The Mind

​​​​​

According to research reported by Time Magazine, the average person has 30,000 to 50,000 thoughts per day — and on particularly stressful days, this number can rise to 80,000 or more.​ That means thousands of thoughts are running through your mind from the moment you wake up until you fall asleep.

​​

But here’s the real question:

​

• How many of those thoughts are fears, worries, calculating and so on?

​​

• Are most of them empowering, supportive, and clear?

​

• Or are they repetitive worries, self-doubt, imagined problems, and mental noise that leave you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and mentally exhausted?

​​​

• What would happen if you were no longer controlled by those unnecessary thoughts?

Direct Path: Meditation to Peace, and Lasting Happiness

​

You are the powerful quiet presence —the pure consciousness - the ever-present awareness. Your mind is only a small part of this vast field of awareness.

 

As astronaut Christina Koch, Artemis II crewmember in April 2026, once described her experience in space: “What struck me wasn’t just Earth… it was all the blackness around it. Earth was like a lifeboat, hanging in the vast universe.”

​

Your consciousness is like that—an immense, boundless expanse in which the mind appears as something small, quietly floating within it.

 

​

Why the Mind Feels Restless

​​

Our eyes are jumping from 180 to 240 times per minute during waking hours and our minds are constantly moving from one thought to another. For instance, you might begin reading this, then think about your garden, remember to contact the gas company, or plan a message to a friend. Our mind is rarely rested properly.

 

This constant mental activity pulls us away from the present moment and from yourself: the peace, happiness and love. The mind shifts between past memories and future expectations, rarely resting in the here and now.

​

Most of the time, only a small part of our attention is on what we are currently experiencing.

​

​

The Power of Present-Moment Awareness & Oneness

​

When the mind becomes fully rested - no more noise, something extraordinary happens. We begin to experience the bliss of our true nature—the deep sense of peace, clarity, and presence described across spiritual traditions.

 

This state is often experienced in high-performance activities like football, tennis, or cricket. In these moments, you are completely immersed—“in the zone.”

 

There is no distraction. No separate self. No awareness of time or space.

 

There is only the present moment and oneness.

Uyen Vu Somatic Embodiment Meditation - Direct Path: Emptying Your Mind

​

​​​This is not a concentration-based practice that asks you to focus on a single object such as a mantra, candle flame, word, or visual point. Instead, it is a meditation with a direct path technique that invites you to relax your mind deeply and return to your natural state—often described as ever-present, silent awareness or God, Buddha or other sacred names - the state prior thoughts arise.

​​

Through gentle self-inquiry, you are guided to safely observe and explore your thoughts, feelings, sensations, and perceptions as they arise, recognizing your true nature—the awareness that exists before thinking begins. By investigating the nature of the mind in this direct way, there is no strain or effort required, making it easy to integrate this practice into everyday life.​

​

Through this practice, you learn to:

​

• Empty your mind.

• Become more present and grounded.

• Reduce mental overthinking and fears.

• Experience deeper peace, calm and clarity.

• Reconnect with your authentic self.

• Being fully yourself, day and night.

​​​

Let me guide alongside you every step of the way as you rediscover yourself. I look forward to practising with you on this direct path to happiness, love, peace and joy!

​

With love,
