Mind
Mind (1)
Mind (pronounced /ˈmaɪnd/) refers to the aspects of intellect and consciousness manifested as combinations of thought, perception, memory, emotion, will and imagination, including all of the brain's conscious and unconscious cognitive processes. "Mind" is often used to refer especially to the thought processes of reason. Subjectively, mind manifests itself as a stream of consciousness.
There are many theories of the mind and its function. The earliest recorded works on the mind are by Zarathushtra, the Buddha, Plato, Aristotle, Adi Shankara and other ancient Greek, Indian and Islamic philosophers. Pre-scientific theories, based in theology, concentrated on the relationship between the mind and the soul, the supernatural, divine or god-given essence of the person. Modern theories, based on scientific understanding of the brain, theorize that the mind is a product of the brain and has both conscious and unconscious aspects.

So You're thinking negative thoughts and wondering, Why do I think all these negative things? About the future, about myself, about my partner. I see things pretty negative. Or How about I think negative thoughts only when I am stressed and I don't know what to do, so it spirals and I think more negative thoughts. When you think about the thought, haven't you created a thinker? Can the thinker be more real than the awareness of it?
