This book provides a list of spiritual activities to help people tired of self-defeating thoughts and learn how to think again. Self-doubt: Self-defeat correlates with insecurity. Unexpected self-sabotage is the result of deep-seated insecurities. Therefore, they are not unexpected. Our brains are made to protect us, to keep threats at bay. Success can feel threatening, frightening, and uncertain. To identify why you always fall into self-destructive thoughts, you might ask yourself, "What am I holding myself back from?” By realizing that self-defeating thoughts are as unreal and futile as distorted thoughts, you will be well on your way to breaking the vicious circle.

Distorted thoughts occur for the sole purpose of keeping you trapped in an unhealthy mindset. If not properly addressed and understood, these distorted thoughts risk manifesting into core beliefs that are absolutely not accurate. In turn, those core beliefs that you have distorted become prevalent in your daily life, essentially forcing you to unconsciously slam on the brakes. A pattern runs deep in the brain. Our brains crave familiarity and reject everything new, different or unfamiliar. This is not always the case for everybody. However, descending mental spirals, a sudden lack of motivation, and overwhelming anxiety trigger negative thoughts. Our thoughts turn into actions that we may regret later. Awareness is only the first step toward self-improvement, and the release of these destructive patterns of thoughts are just thoughts, and a healthy state of mind recognizes the truth of distorted ones.

Many people associate spiritual activities with religion. However, this is not always the case. Sometimes performing spiritual activities is a self-help practice to help a person improve their mental and emotional health. In a nonreligious concept, spirituality emphasizes the well-being of the mind, spirit, and body. This usually includes holistic activities such as meditation or yoga. Spirituality seeks a meaningful connection with something greater than yourself, which can lead to positive emotions such as peace, wonder, contentment, gratitude, and acceptance.

If you are eager to get in touch with your soul more, carrying out spiritual self-help activities can be of great help.This book provides a list of spiritual activities to help people tired of self-defeating thoughts and learn how to think again.

Enjoyed this book.

This is a must-have for your self-help library; it's a fantastic tool for better understanding oneself.

Pretty good book if you're into self help.

This was a fantastic recording for me. The proof is that I read it all the way through. It's not only simple to read, but it's also jam-packed with information. I liked how each chapter ended with a recap of the most relevant facts. The specific examples of real-life events were fantastic.

Straight to the point.

This is an excellent book. Excellent observations. Thought-provoking and practical advice. I suggested this book to numerous friends and family members, who purchased it and also recommended it. Thanks

Incredible book.

You already know why you're here if you're looking at this book. Get a copy of this book. You'll either learn something new or gain some useful information. Very nicely written, succinct, and straightforward. After your first time through, you may use this as a reference.

Amazing book

Informative. It had aided me in reflecting on my life and how I was living it.

Get out of my own way.

I was able to use a lot of what I learned from this book. It was eye-opening, and it gave me the courage to accomplish things I'd been putting off for years.

Easy to Understand - Very Helpful.

I bought a couple books about self-defeating attitudes and behavior. This is by far the most useful and applicable. While other publications might go on and on about self-destructive practices, this book gets to the heart of the matter in plain English. "Self-defeating behavior arises when we fail to understand the lessons that life attempts to teach us," I appreciate how straightforward the wording is, and how effectively it highlights our faults - It symbolizes the triumph of impulsiveness over awareness, quick gratification over long-term fulfillment, and relief over resolve.
