The neutral mind is not sexy or exciting, it is simple, calm and precise. Many do not want to develop their neutral mind in fear that life will be boring without the highs and lows. However the neutral mind is our secret weapon for sustainability and steadiness. Always riding the big waves can become emotionally draining and leave us feeling burnt out. The neutral mind is like riding a long and steadywave, you still get to enjoy the ride and it lasts a lot longer.

 

If you find your life is a constant roller-coaster of emotions and reactions, then focus on your neutral mind. Life may seem a little duller without all the drama but once you get used to a steady calmness you will never look back. The neutral mind when developed can be your foundation through all matters of life. 

 

The neutral mind is the innate ability to see both sides in everything and act in a calm, intuitive manner. Neutral mind means we turn down freak out mode and quieten paralyzing self-talk. When someone has a strong neutral mind, they are able to adequately weigh both the negative and positive in order to see the big picture. When we act from the neutral mind we are able to stay present and access our higher consciousness. This helps us to respect our feelings, but also develop responses that bring us closer to our higher selves.

 

There is a connection between the neutral mind and our Anahata (or heart center) Chakra. When we study the heart chakra, we learn about the importance of compassion, acceptance and heart-centered living. These are the exact feelings we’re trying to cultivate within our neutral mind as well. To truly live from a place of happiness we must relieve ourselves from the constant emotional ups and downs of the negative & positive minds. This new, neutral way of thinking is essential to the expansion of our consciousness and connection to our heart center and Higher Self.

 

Characteristics of the Neutral Mind:

Affirmation: I am guided by the divine wisdom of my spirit.

Qualities: In general, a person who is familiar and well practiced with their neutral mind will have a calm and compassionate perception of the world. This can manifest as:

 • A deep connection with their intuition.

 • Low levels of stress and fear in their lives.

 • The ability to healthfully disengage from arguments.

 • A general sense of peace and wellbeing.

 • The desire to live from a place of service.

When a person is deeply connected to their neutral mind, they aren’t usually heavily swayed by their emotions. Instead, they are able to maintain a peaceful heart center and a tranquil state of being. It’s important to note, this doesn’t mean that they suddenly turn into emotionally-unavailable robots. Instead, they’ve learned how to discern their emotional reactions to a situation in a way that helps them to avoid being triggered and reactive.

Someone with a strong and engaged neutral mind knows how they want to utilize their energy in the world, and aims to bring happiness through acts of service and compassion. If you believe in an infinite power or higher consciousness, this is where you strengthen your connection to that matter.
