Don’t Believe Everything You Think

Description

By Joseph Nguyen

Anxiety, fear, overthinking, self-criticism: is this an unavoidable part of being human, or can a person find peace regardless of circumstances?

Nguyen’s argument is that relief does not come from changing your behaviour but from seeing how the mind manufactures your experience in the first place, and from noticing the difference between thoughts, which arrive on their own, and thinking, which you do to yourself.
