Mind Whispering: A New Map to Freedom from Self-Defeating Emotional Habits by Tara Bennett-Goleman
4.0
This was as insightful a read as it was difficult, and after lots of starts and stops, I finally managed to finish it. I'm actually giving it 3.5 stars because, again, it was a slow read, and could've benefited from a tighter structure. That said, this is one of those books that you just have to read because every page is filled with invaluable insights and wisdom.
The basic idea is that each of us is operating from a "mode", and being aware of when we're in a negative/positive mode allows us to have more space from which we can then choose a better response. The mode concept applies not just to individuals but also to relationships and groups, which I thought was fascinating and explains a lot of relationship dynamics.
I'll be updating this with my notes on the major take-aways from this book soon.
