Hey Kaika!!
Great question. For me, sometimes I can't keep the bad stuff out and I can't get the good stuff in, so it is a constant battle of will for me to make this happen. I'm not really sure how I succeed at this, when I am able to, but my system is really good at stepping in and helping me "clean house" if you will. Sometimes, it's just making an active decision to not let something in or out, and sometimes it is more of a passive thing that I am unaware of. The active decisions take practice. My T says, the brain is like a muscle...the more you practice with it, the bigger and stronger the muscle will become. Exercise that muscle as much as possible to help you fight against the darkness!! I don't know how helpful this was, but I thought I'd offer my .2 cents worth.  By the way...I LOVE your new avatar!!
