"Weight Loss for the Mind" is not a book for those who'd like to lose pounds or inches from their bodies, instead it's about losing the weight/anguish within your mind.
Although this book is really small in size, it provides a "powerful punch" - lots of great ideas, thoughts, insights & concepts to help people alleviate weighty minds - therefore creating a happy, wonderful existence instead.
The types of things discussed include:
*Perceptions, psychology & metaphysics
*Mental weight as being the interaction of 2 or more forces within your mind
*What's behind, & how to deal with, such emotions as fear, confusion, frustration, guilt, & anger
*How & why emotions get in our way
*Using visualization to create what you'd like/enjoy
*How we actually push away that which we truly want in life & how we can begin to move towards that which we'd like to experience
*Eliminating confusion & making decisions based on feelings (not emotions)
*Learning to accept the contradictions of life
*Traning your mind to be less dogmatic & rigid
*It's our expectations that create contradictions, and it's these contradictions that make life feel difficult
*Instead of fighting against what's happening, go with it - enjoying everything life has to give
*By taking the emotions out of it, we no longer automatically react
*Events/circumstances are neither positive or negative, they only become that way by how we view them - and we can choose how we view them.
Overall, I found this to be a wonderful, insightful, easy read. I would highly recommend it to anyone seeking to create change within their lives - it has much to offer!
