"The truth will not penetrate a preoccupied mind." -Charles Darwin

Our minds are thought making machines. And in that, we know that when we are easily distracted we have the power to bring our awareness back to the present and what is TRUE. But, an anxious mind can often be filled with preoccupied thoughts. This can keep us Warriors from moving forward, getting our work done, completing tasks, etc. Basically, keeping us from being truly present.

In today's episode, Abby and Margot share stories about times in their life (and even behavior patterns) where they grappled with a stuck mind filled with preoccupied or overwhelming thoughts. They uncover the ways they practice(d) moving through it, and discuss past and current strategies for soothing and caring for their mind in these tough moments and situations.
