Has anyone read The Chimp Paradox by Steve Peters - I find it quite compelling because of the way he describes the way your mind works and what people need to do if they are to feel better? My quack recommended it.
Thanks for this!

Looks interesting. Called Monkey Mind in meditation. Awareness is key.

Interesting, not unrelated I suspect, the underlying tenets tend to be consistent from one source of wisdom to another: Steve Peters, Author Of The Chimp Paradox, Reveals How To Be Less Anxious
