FREEING YOURSELF FROM YOUR MIND
What exactly do you mean by “watching the thinker”?
When someone goes to the doctor and says, “I hear a voice in my head,” he or she will most
likely be sent to a psychiatrist. The fact is that, in a very similar way, virtually
everyone hears a voice, or several voices, in their head all the time: the involuntary
thought processes that you don't realize you have the power to stop. Continuous monologues
