Welcome to another video.
Bienvenidos a otro vídeo.

In today's video, let's talk about how to control our negative emotions and how to control our mind.
En el vídeo de hoy, hablaremos de cómo controlar nuestras emociones negativas y cómo controlar nuestra mente.
4
Well, the nature of our mind is, it always likes to wander in negative emotions
Bueno, la naturaleza de nuestra mente es que siempre le gusta divagar en emociones negativas.
5
and negative thoughts negative thoughts like anger desire or lust
y pensamientos negativos, pensamientos negativos como la ira, el deseo o la lujuria.
6
or then jealousy maybe resentment these are the negative thoughts
o entonces celos tal vez resentimiento estos son los pensamientos negativos
7
that our mind likes to enter in so how can we control it well our great teacher supreme
que a nuestra mente le gusta entrar, entonces ¿cómo podemos controlarlo bien? Nuestro gran maestro supremo
8
Buddha introduced us a gradual training where you can practice this controlling of negative emotions or negative thoughts in your mind.
Buda nos enseñó un entrenamiento gradual en el que puedes practicar el control de las emociones o pensamientos negativos en tu mente.
9
So, without any further ado, I'm going to introduce them to you.
Así que, sin más preámbulos, voy a presentárselos.
10
So, first and foremost, before getting into these steps, there is one thing that you have to practice,
Así que, antes que nada, antes de entrar en estos pasos, hay una cosa que tienes que practicar,
11
and there is one thing that you have to master, and that is awareness.
Y hay algo que debes dominar, y es la consciencia.
12
If you are not aware of what you are thinking, if you are not mindful about what you are thinking, then you cannot control it.
Si no eres consciente de lo que piensas, si no prestas atención a tus pensamientos, entonces no puedes controlarlos.
13
So you have to totally understand and you have to totally be aware of what you're thinking.
14
Okay?
15
So whenever you find, whenever you become aware of what you're thinking, then you will have that power to control it.
16
So here comes the first step.
17
Buddha says, whenever you become aware of your mind is wandering in negative thoughts like anger
18
or lustful thoughts or or resentment
19
or jealousy the first thing is to shift your thought pattern to something wholesome
20
there are some wholesome thoughts in your mind
21
which makes you peaceful maybe like thinking of something
22
that you have done in the past like maybe you help someone whenever you think
23
that thought your mind becomes happy and peaceful.
24
So what you're gonna do is, whenever you become aware of your negative thoughts, we're going to shift our thought pattern to something that is wholesome,
25
something that makes us peaceful.
26
So that is the first thing that Buddha says.
27
Shift your thoughts to wholesome thoughts.
28
If that first step did not work out, then what you have to do, go for the next step.
29
What is that?
30
Buddha says, think about the disadvantages of thinking negative emotions, right?
31
If you are constantly having angry thoughts, then you have to think, these thoughts are hurting myself and others.
32
If I take actions according to these thoughts, it will hurt myself and the others.
33
Remember, it may be a little thought of anger, but if it grow up, what will happen?
34
It will be destructive.
35
So what do you have to do?
36
Think about the drawbacks or disadvantages of thinking these negative thoughts.
37
Then, whenever you see these disadvantages, your mind will tend to stay away from these negative thoughts.
38
Most of the time, we are not aware of these disadvantages.
39
Okay?
40
So, what do you have to do?
41
Think.
42
If I keep on thinking these negative thoughts, it is not going to help me.
43
It will disrupt my peacefulness.
44
Right?
45
That is the second step.
46
Then as the third step, Buddha says, pay no mind, pay no attention.
47
If the second step did not work out, go for the third step to not to pay any attention to that thought.
48
See, whenever we give so much attention to something, maybe a thought, it grows again and again, it grows more, right?
49
For an example, if you became angry with someone and if you keep thinking about him again and again and becoming angry,
50
that anger will grow more and more.
51
So, what do you have to do?
52
We have to let the thought be a thought without paying much attention, right?
53
When you just stay away from giving attention, then it will fade away from your mind.
54
It's something like this.
55
Have you seen little babies, when they fall down, they start to cry, right?
56
If the parent or the mother or father see that it is not a big deal of falling,
57
if mother or father did not give any attention to that baby, what does he do?
58
He just don't care about that.
59
He will stop crying.
60
Same thing goes with our mind.
61
If we did not pay any attention to that thought, right if we did not care about that thought
62
and just let it go and let it pass away from our mind then it will fade away
63
That is why we have to say, if the third step did not work for you in the business, go for the fourth step,
64
because you lack your fourth step.
65
Now remember, when you choose negative steps, your mind becomes very quickly and drops on the step.
66
So, what you are going to do is, you are thinking, why are I thinking these disasters,
67
these negative disasters that are making me so much different, making me distracted, right?
68
So, what you are going to do is, you are relaxing yourself up to something very soft and soft.
69
Do you like loving times?
70
Do you like loving times?
71
Do you like great things?
72
When you see those things, when you see more processes, your mind or your thought process becomes so much easier.
73
And then, if the thought process did not work away, then it comes to time.
74
This is something that you have to do with great things.
75
I do not recommend for everyone to do this, this could be done with a good experience and a good instruction, right?
76
And that is to trust your soul with awareness, right?
77
You have to be totally aware of your own experience, have a good recognition to your mind, how many things can be used.
78
But this could not be done by everyone.
79
The tunnel will be much better.
80
If you keep on becoming aware and if you keep on closing the money, it will go more and more with the tunnel to close.
81
So, if all those four steps did not work for you, then you have to do it.
82
So, it is much better to practice these four choices before doing the practice.
83
I think to practice this,
84
when you think, you will see and you will understand that your negative connection is failing to lose.
85
Meaning, this is not going to happen anymore.
86
It will take a long time to do it, but you have to do it two times.
87
Two times to make it.
88
And then you will do it.
89
So, practice is happy to make your mind.
90
So, if there are three times to do it.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
