Book Description

April 2000
Is your mind stunting your growth? To some extent, all of us live within the limits of all the many past thoughts, ideas, or feelings that frame our current experience. And from time to time, everyone has the feeling that maybe, just maybe, these past "frames" are blocking the view and preventing us from seeing the picture-bright colors of our living present in all its glorious, moment-to-moment snapshot reality. Here is an inspiring collection of wise stories, brief fables, and provocative techniques that offer new ways of thinking to help readers see the people and situations in their lives as they truly are. Readers learn how to challenge their old frames, become more patient and loving, and experience difficult people and situations with less frustration and more peace of mind. Each of the 70 brief passages has a four-part format, including (1) a quotation from a well known philosopher or spiritual or political leader; (2) personal vignettes, case studies, or fables that illustrate the point of each chapter; (3) a psychological technique or spiritual principle that is related to the vignette or fable; and (4) concluding brief suggestions on how readers can integrate the principles into their work, intimate relationships, or daily lives. Any reader who is looking for a new outlook and for ways to live a simpler yet more meaningful life will find this book a refreshing, liberating, and thought-provoking companion.

This review is from: Don't Let Your Mind Stunt Your Growth: Stories, Fables, and Techniques That Will Set Your Mind Free (Paperback)
Dr. Robinson has done a wonderful job of combining personal experiences with basic truths that, at one point in most of our lives, we have all either learned or suspected may be true. Great reading as a morning "thought of the day" or wisdom to fall asleep to. Certainly, we all would be happier if we could remember these lessons as we go through our hectic lives.
