In This Book, You’ll Discover:

• The root cause of all psychological and emotional suffering and how to end it
• How to become unaffected by negative thoughts and feelings
• How to experience unconditional love, peace, and joy in the present, no matter your external circumstances
• How to instantly create a new experience of life if you don’t like the one you’re in right now
• How to break free from negative thought loops
• How to let go of anxiety, self-doubt, self-sabotage, and self-destructive habits
• How to effortlessly create from a state of abundance, flow, and ease
• How to develop the superpower of being okay with uncertainty
• How to access your intuition and inner wisdom beyond the limitations of thinking

No matter what has happened to you, where you are from, or what you have done, you can still find total peace, unconditional love, complete fulfillment, and an abundance of joy in your life. No person is an exception to this. Darkness only exists because of the light, which means even in our darkest hour, light must exist.

Within this book, you'll find timeless wisdom to empower you with the understanding of our mind's infinite potential to create any experience of life we want, regardless of external circumstances.

Don't Believe Everything You Think is not about rewiring your brain, rewriting your past, or positive thinking. We cannot solve our problems with the same level of consciousness that created them. Tactics are temporary. An expansion of consciousness is permanent.

This book was written to help you go beyond your thinking and discover the truth of what you already intuitively know deep inside your soul.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Common themes but good to hear again

There are many common and familiar themes in this book, but they help to reinforce ideas to help overcome overthinking.

Remember that this is one's journey to overcome overthinking and the distress it can cause. Not everyone needs a god to be at peace. The author mentions God several times but God and religion can cause much fear and overthinking itself. If that's what he needed, then fantastic, but remember to listen to your instincts as a guide to what you need.

Overall, I liked the book and it is worth a listen as I emcountered many "ah-ha" moments. Go into it open minded, with an empty cup as the author mentions, and you will learn something to help guide you to inner peace.

Even Better than the First

So I thought the first edition was amazing and really thought it was going to be hard to improve upon, but he did. If you are on any type of spiritual journey or are having issues with anxiety I highly recommend this book. If you practice the methods it can really help you eliminate most of your negative thinking.

A different perspective

This book will help you a lot with fear and overthinking! It’s such a great book ! I would definitely recommend if you suffer with overthinking and anxiety

Completely altered my experience of life

I have always pursued development in mindfulness and the power to choose my life; however something was always nagging at me and no matter how effective my development seemed i would always fall back into old patterns. This was so frustrating until i listened to this book and now understand its simplest concept that has transformed my ability to stay on course. The difference between thought and thinking as told by the author has had a profound effect on my ability to center myself and find peace.

Well worth listening to, and the author reads with compassion and self experience.

Everything

This book was incredible. Highly recommend for everyone. Ten out of ten!! Even if you aren't an overthinker.

Great Insight, Terrible delivery.

The layout and concepts of this book are very thought provoking and helpful. I enjoyed the quotes throughout. The choppy, monotone, Christopher Walken style delivery made this a very difficult listen.
