- ignorantguy 8y agoI use headspace app. You should try it for a month and see.
- Distant_horizon 8y agoIf you're a thinking person (a good thing!) then it may be impossible to create some sort of self-imposed coma. However, if the goal is to stop thinking about one type of thing (work, a failure, an event) that can definitely be accomplished. When the thought is forming, immediately begin meditation. Retrain yourself to escape or dismiss the idea on command.
