About this book
Psychological suffering keeps returning when thought drags you into yesterday or tomorrow and makes the present feel unavailable. This book argues that the relief you want starts when you stop treating that noise as who you are.
What you'll learn
- Identify when you are confusing thought with identity, so you can notice the mind instead of automatically believing it.
- Use present-moment attention, breath, and inner-body awareness to interrupt rumination and return to presence quickly.
- Recognize pain-body reactions and practice surrender without mistaking inner acceptance for passivity.
Themes
- Presence
- Psychological time
- Ego
- Pain-body
