Maladaptive Daydreaming: where wild minds come to rest
Stilling the mind
The more I am aware of MD, the more I am aware of the necessity of stilling the mind. Mental chatter can sometimes be the enemy of clarity. A monk I was watching said he called it "monkey mind" because his mind was chattering on like a monkey. A rabbi I watched had an entire sermon dedicated to the virtue of stillness.
It takes a special spiritual discipline to still the mind and focus attention. I'm always in awe of when people can sit still and be still without being flooded by a thousand thoughts.
