Foundation Friday: Don't Believe Everyth...

About this episode

Send us a text

It's the last Friday of the month  which means it's another special episode we like to call Foundation Friday! In these episodes, I talk about a book that has made an impact on my life, challenging me to change, reminding me of my worth or just making me rearrange everything I thought I knew! Today's book is one of those 'rearrange your thinking' books! I am so excited to share Joseph Nguyen's transformative insights from "Don't Believe Everything You Think" with you today. 

 In this episode, we uncover how to differentiate between passing thoughts and the suffering we cause ourselves when we turn those thoughts into some serious thinking. You'll hear about the invisible traps of overthinking that can cloud our mental health and discover the keys to freeing ourselves from their grip. 

We examine the techniques outlined in Nguyens work to help us stop the cycle of analysis paralysis and regain clarity in our decision-making processes. This episode is an invitation to reconnect with the core of our being, embracing a mindset shift that can dramatically reshape our lives.  To learn how to unthink! Seems impossible right?! As a recovering over thinker, I can attest that breaking the habit of going down the garden path of very thought really does set you free from the self-imposed constraints of all our anxious 'what if's' and "could's." And the practical steps Joseph offered in this dynamite of a book really could be the difference between your continued suffering or a life that is thriving, empowered by connecting beyond the misery our minds create.

As we ponder the principles that govern our psychological and emotional health, I offer practical advice to ease the self-inflicted pain and tap into the unparalleled resource that is the universal mind.

Our journey within doesn't end with introspection;  In our follow up episode, dropping the same day, I'll take you through a serious of affirmations to inspire  more calm  for the mind besieged by Overthinking /Intrusive Thoughts .

Together, we embark on a transformative quest to challenge our beliefs, confront our fears, and step boldly into an authentic life that lies just beyond our anxieties. Join the conversation and share your journey toward transformation with our  Foundation Friday Facebook group and the Reverse Reset Restore community .

There are a TONNE of quotes throughout this episode, here's just one: 

“If we know that we can only ever feel what we are thinking, then we know that we can change our feelings by changing our thinking. Thus, we can change our experience of life by knowing that it comes from our own thinking. And if that is true, then we are ever only one thought away from experiencing something different and transforming our entire lives at any moment — through a state of no thought. In short, the moment we stop thinking is when our happiness begins.”
