Good article.

But it doesn't mention the self-talk aka "stream of consciousness" that virtually everyone hears. And a key insight is that it's not our consciousness. It's basically just recordings that get played back on queue. A central aspect of meditation is becoming aware of that voice as something distinct from self.

So anyway, it's best to think "Thanks for sharing :)" and then to do something intentional.
