In Stop the Brain: Enjoy Freedom from Intrusive Thoughts , author Jim Smart, PhD, PE, investigates questions critical to spiritual wellness: what is the mind, and where do thoughts come from? Most people think they have no control over their thoughts, but they can learn to control the release of thoughts for hours at a time. Stop the Brain shows readers how in a short, easy text (as opposed to years of therapy). Using powerful new tools and mindfulness techniques, the mind can be stabilized and rendered free of uninvited, intrusive thoughts. Enjoy profound spiritual results such as a calmer mind, less anxiety, a sense of peace, greater tolerance, radical forgiveness, deep sleep, increased focus, and less bodily pain.
