Just a Thought

A No-Willpower Approach to Overcome Self-Doubt and Make Peace with Your Mind

By: Amy Johnson PhD

Narrated by: Amy Johnson

You are not your thoughts! Learn how to overcome negative thinking habits and self-doubt so you can experience more confidence, freedom, and peace of mind.

When you understand how your mind works, unhelpful and noisy thoughts move to the background, and your awareness shifts to something quieter and deeper. This is true peace of mind. And it's not some unattainable goal reserved for the most enlightened. Anyone can experience it.

From life coach and psychologist Amy Johnson, this user-friendly guide offers a no-willpower approach informed by ancient wisdom and modern neuroscience to help you change your negative thinking habits, make peace with your inner critic, and experience more self-confidence and freedom than you ever thought possible.

Our minds are hardwired to expect the worst. They love to replay the past and predict the future. They have strong opinions that feel solid and meaningful but are always changing and contradicting themselves. When we think our thoughts define who we are, we suffer. But when we see the truth - and we glimpse the space that lies beyond those self-created stories - we suffer far less. This book will help you glimpse that truth and use it to find peace.

Best 3P book I’ve encountered

I just loved this exploration of 3P ideas. Beautifully clear. Preferred it to pretty much everything else I’ve read (though that has obviously been great too).

A bird’s eye view

Thank goodness for Amy’s awareness and skill at laying out how our minds function, so that we see its limitations and wake up to so much more of who we truly are. This is NOT another book prescribing “how to.” It’s an opening of an awareness door so your own unique expanded life adventure can unfold. Thank you Amy!

I really enjoyed hearing this message

This book is helping me to step back farther away from my life and watch my brain from a place of peace and safety as it does its job. I loved the sitting too close to the tv analogy. Thank you

You are not your thoughts so stop defending them

I love Amy's simple yet life changing approach to change. No outside stimuli required. It is so empowering to know that I create the life that I see in front of me. No one made me me this way it just appeared that they did. This book helped me loosen my grip on the narrative of who I am and in doing so I have made room for all sorts of possibilities that were not available to me before because my certainty was blocking them. Insight based change shifting the way we think about anything naturally changes everything. It's effortless and awareness is all you need to go along this journey. Great book

excellent as she always is

Dr. Amy will help you navigate to your true self. Her books are keepers for me.
