Many novice attempts focus on recognizing that one's environs are not Self.
More advanced practitioners recognize that they are not just their bodies.
In fact, the outside world is your larger body.
The next step is to recognize that your Self is something distinct from your thoughts.
If you are ready to practice this, do it by observing your thoughts.
Recognize that You are something apart from these thoughts.
As such, You can and must develop mastery over them.
You must learn to direct, focus and cease them at will.
Just as the body is at constant struggle for control with its environment, the brain struggles to control the physical and emotional bodies, while simultaneously providing for their needs. Your Self also must awaken. Your Mind must learn to control your thoughts and thus You will have mastered you.
