How many times in the course of our New Thought studies have we heard phrases like “Think positive,” “Cancel those negative thoughts,” or “Don’t think negative thoughts, or negative things will happen”?
And how many times, as students and seekers of health and happiness, have we found ourselves unable to sustain that “think positive” philosophy, only to conclude, “There’s something wrong with me. I’m just not doing it right”?
But what if trying to eliminate our negative thoughts and uncomfortable sensations actually causes us to suppress, ignore, or avoid some of the most valuable tools we have for healing and living a fuller life?
In this revelatory book, David Friedman looks directly at the negative thoughts and uncomfortable sensations we so often try to escape. Rather than treating them as things to fear or ignore, he explores them as messages from our past and as tools that may help us confront long-avoided trauma, emotional pain, and discomfort.
By learning to listen to what these thoughts and sensations may be telling us, Friedman offers a different path forward, one that moves beyond simply trying to “think positive” and toward greater understanding, healing, and self-awareness.
