Quiet Your Mind: Easy-To-Follow Guidance for Quieting Upsetting Thoughts and Regaining Inner Harmony and Clarity - Softcover
Synopsis
John Selby shows how the non-stop chatter of our minds and our own fear-based thoughts so easily catch us up in negative, destructive mindsets such as irritation, worry, impatience, guilt, inadequacy, hostility, shame and despair. This book provides a toolbox for rising above harmful thoughts and regaining inner-peace.

EXCERPT FROM INTRODUCTION:
For hundreds of years now, Western civilization has become more and more engulfed in the thinking mind’s grand assumption that its own mental chatter and nonstop flow of judgments and worries is the most important happening on planet Earth. Ever since Descartes made his intellectual’s assertion Cogito, ergo sum – "I think, therefore I am" – the talkative function generating our stream-of-consciousness commentary on everything happening around us has gained free reign to dominate almost every moment of our lives.
I would like to quietly yet forcefully challenge this ego assumption that we function best, and enjoy life to the fullest, when we’re habitually engaged in nonstop mental reflections, worries, plottings, and judgments. In exact contrast, this book will demonstrate that only through regularly quieting the entire flow of thoughts, images, memories, and reflections that fill our minds can we regain intimate and fulfilling contact with sensory, intuitive, and heart-felt experiences that emerge when we shift into direct encounter with the world around us.
