    Break Free: Stop Negative Thoughts & Be Present

    Miglior citazione da Break Free: Stop Negative Thoughts & Be Present

    “

    The most liberating truth is that you are not your brain. Your brain automatically generates thoughts and urges, but your mind—the conscious, aware part of you—has the power to evaluate these messages and choose whether to act on them.
