Quiet Your Mind: How to Quieten Upsetting Thoughts and Regain Inner Harmony

Description

John Selby's unique step-by-step, mind-management technique shows how to calm the mind and find more peace and pleasure in life Psychologist, teacher and therapist, 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. Quiet Your Mind provides an easily-accessible toolbox for rising above harmful thoughts and regaining inner peace, by shifting at will into a special 'quiet mind' state of awareness where reflective thinking stops and true, spontaneous enjoyment of life begins.

John Selby has spent his professional life studying meditation. Growing up in California, he met, and became the student and friend of, Krishnamurti. He also studied with a number of other great living teachers and then turned to an academic exploration of the psychological foundations of spirituality at Princeton and UC Berkeley as well as carrying out mind research for various bodies including the National Institute of Mental Health. He did fieldwork on shamanistic practices with the Hopi Indians and tribes in highland Guatemala, also maintaining his therapy and training centres in California and Europe. He is the author of over two dozen highly successful books, including Seven Masters, One Path; Kundalini Awakening in Everyday Life; Conscious Healing and Immune System Activation. He lives in Kilauea, Hawaii.
