Yes, you're right. Or, if you are pro-active, feelings follow Action. A little harder in practice than letting our feelings follow our thoughts, but productive when you can do it.

As to how to get rid of thoughts, that's easier said than done! LOL

Yeah - we all know we get rid of them by forcing ourselves to get our brains on other things but it sure is hard when you want so much for your M to work out and are in pain.
