LEAVE yOUR MIND BEHINDEven though we usually have little control over our thoughts, we tend to invest in them with a lot of authority. Take a moment right now and think, “There’s a hungry grizzly bear sitting next to me.” Did you run screaming from the room? Probably not. But what if instead you had thought, “I’m boring,” or “No one loves me”? Just like that terrifying grizzly, these more garden-variety thoughts are just words and pictures that pop into our minds. If we can learn to notice our thoughts without taking them literally, we can devote our energies to living a rich and purposeful life—rather than running from imaginary grizzlies.

The lighthearted practices in this book can help you make it happen. Drawn from a new approach to psychotherapy called acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), these activities won’t tell you to stop or control problematic thinking. Instead, they’ll show you how to watch your thoughts without judgment and learn to live with the confounding and marvelous word-making, storytelling machine that is your mind.

LIVINg WITH yOUR HEART WIDE OPENThe way we talk to ourselves is often unkind and filled with self-judgments. These overly harsh self-criticisms can make us feel unworthy and incomplete.

Reading this book is like attending a meditation retreat.

THE LOTUS EFFECTThe lotus plant has a unique ability to survive in muddy, humid swamps, producing beautiful flowers that bloom just above the water’s surface. By repelling dirt and parasites from their leaves, lotuses are able to thrive and access as much sunlight and water as possible. What if we, like the lotus, could let the trials and tribulations of everyday life slip away, and emerge unscathed and whole?

Suffering results when we lose sight of our true sense of self and absorb everyday frustrations instead of letting these feelings fall away. Inspired by Buddhist and Vedic psychology, The Lotus

Effect will help you rediscover who you are by clarifying what you are not. Through the contemplative “identity detox” exercises and meditations in this book, you’ll learn to let go of stress, worry, anger, suffering, and need for approval as naturally as the lotus sheds mud from its leaves. As you practice detaching yourself from life’s disappointments, frustrations, and fears, you’ll take the first steps toward strengthening your core “lotus self” so that you, too, will possess the resilience to blossom, no matter the circumstances.
