Sometimes living inside our heads can feel like one insult after another.
Do you have a run-away brain? A mind that just won't stop?
Refreshingly honest, direct and humorous, How to Potty Train Your Brain will have you smiling while it opens your mind, explains your brain, shows you how our minds become petty tyrants - and then gives you the tools to free yourself from your mind's control. Understanding how our minds developed makes it easy to use the tools to regain that control - and to create a life full of the peace and joy that comes from finally being and living it as you have always wanted, and as is your birthright.
Based in the Toltec tradition of Don Miguel Ruiz and HeatherAsh Amara, How To Potty Train Your Brain opens up Toltec philosophy with easily understood concepts, walking you through the 'learning process' each of us undergoes as young children, and that Toltecs call 'domestication'.
2000 years ago, ancient Toltecs understood domestication, how our self-limiting judgments and beliefs were created, and what our brains did with that information. How to Potty Train Your Brain takes these teachings and adapts them to our era, where they have surged to the forefront of self-awareness techniques because they work - ancient wisdom for modern times.
The 30 tools that Diana shares come from Toltec Wisdom, but also from other traditions including America's culture. Sample 'tool' chapters are:
The Truth....What Opens You....Big Bad PainThe Finger....Going Out of Your Mind....I'm Gonna Blow....Black and White....Brain on Crack and Stress....Have a Heart....Parental Controls - New and Improved
How to Potty Train Your Brain's chapters are short and easy to fit into a busy life. It makes a great reference (and even a 'bathroom' book!), where you can choose a chapter or tool a day to support you as you head out the door.
And on the fun side - sayings like 'your mind is in the toilet' and 'down the john' will take on new meaning! Rather than being slurs, you'll know that, 'Yes! Thank goodness!'
