About this listen

You are not your thoughts! Learn how to overcome negative thinking habits and self-doubt so you can experience more confidence, freedom, and peace of mind.

When you understand how your mind works, unhelpful and noisy thoughts move to the background, and your awareness shifts to something quieter and deeper. This is true peace of mind. And it's not some unattainable goal reserved for the most enlightened. Anyone can experience it.

From life coach and psychologist Amy Johnson, this user-friendly guide offers a no-willpower approach informed by ancient wisdom and modern neuroscience to help you change your negative thinking habits, make peace with your inner critic, and experience more self-confidence and freedom than you ever thought possible.

Our minds are hardwired to expect the worst. They love to replay the past and predict the future. They have strong opinions that feel solid and meaningful but are always changing and contradicting themselves. When we think our thoughts define who we are, we suffer. But when we see the truth - and we glimpse the space that lies beyond those self-created stories - we suffer far less. This book will help you glimpse that truth and use it to find peace.

So many "penny drop" moments. Amy manages to blow your mind in a safe and loving way, leaving you reeling with a complete reunderstanding of thought and an unfamiliar sense of deep peace, contentment and gratitude. Will be buying a copy for my family and friends!

This book is brilliant! It was recommended to me by my doctor as I’m struggling with my mental health at present and this has opened my eyes to so much I’ve been ignoring! Thank you for your insight❤️

Some really good points made in this,

Mixed occasionally with a plug for her website and the little school of big change (but who can blame her) - there’s a bunch of free resources on there as well as paid for content too.

One downside I noticed is it was all internalisations that started the issues raised in the stories and examples, but what if it’s an external source such as an unfair dismissal or exile from a successful career path/ tribe, or struggling to deal with incomprehensible loss.
Still though it gets 4/5, would recommend.
Will probably read through again incase I missed something

Nice set of stories

Few people talk about the inner workings of the busy mind as well as Dr. Amy Johnson. Throughout the book there are countless brilliant as well as easy to recognize examples from daily life, metaphors, client- and personal stories, supported by scientific explanations about the evolution and function of the brain. I really saw at a much deeper level, listening to this, how mechanical and unpersonal my mind is, and how it is only doing its best to protect me (from what it has made up is dangerous). Thank you for a truly inspiring book.

Brilliant and wise

Waking up is something we see and not something we do.
Fabulous book.
Thankyou Amy
