When we think our thoughts define who we are, we suffer. But when we see the truth—and we glimpse the space that lies beyond those self-created stories—we suffer far less.
The Just a Thought companion course is an effective and fun way to get the most from this paradigm-shifting book.
The companion course includes supplemental videos for each of the 33 chapters in the book, plus six 90-minute recordings of discussion calls I led with a group of people as they read the book.
