A Mind Pretending To Be Me: How F*cked up Can Set You Free

OCD, anxiety, and the experience of intrusive thoughts are intelligent survival responses for a person who grew up feeling unsafe. Let's set aside the idea of chemical imbalance for a moment. The mind, just like the rest of the system, is only ever trying to help us-even if it is causing tremendous suffering. The key to freedom is not trying to change the mind. The key to freedom is realizing that we have never been the mind. Not a single thought is yours or about you (even if it sounds like you). You have always been and will always be the intelligent awareness that notices the thoughts.In A Mind Pretending to Be Me, Katherine Keen Velasquez empathetically walks through how confusion about identity and addiction to the mind begin. She also shows how a messy, chaotic mind is trying to wake you up to the magical truth of who you are. These topics are explored in a down-to-earth, unfiltered, and uncensored way through her personal experience.This book will help you to:¿ Find the freedom of being totally fine with every thought or feeling¿ Start experiencing the wonder of every precious moment instead of living with your attention fixated on your mind¿ Stop believing the voice of your mental personal narrator as truth, which is the root of mental illness¿ End the addiction to your mind that keeps you small and confined¿ Tap into your limitless potential by introducing you to the incredible intelligence that you are¿ Be more present, mindful, and at peace
