John Selby

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.

This volume should appeal to those with no knowledge of meditation who are interested in its therapeutic benefits, as well as New Age and Buddhist readers who want to improve their skills. This book explains the meditation techniques of many great teachers.
