#Untethered soul by michael singer how to

There are golden nuggets in it but you have to look for them carefully - hence I give 2 star to the story. ItвЂ™s a first time I really struggled to listen to the end and I listened and read hundreds of books. But the teachings of this book give a false illusion that ignoring your inner voice - is a solution to all our problems. Like I said - it is like a fire - the fire itself isnвЂ™t a problem, the management of it can be.

It can get overprotective and can indeed come up with rubbish ideas too. My inner voice often supports me and protects me.

ItвЂ™s important to learn how to manage it because it (the monkey mind) can indeed overtake our life and our life will become like a ship driven by a monkey - you never know where it will end up. I would like to see people following the advice from the book for 3-5 years and how healthy they are in their head. The ideas in the book are one sided so after a while of ignoring the voice in your head I suspect a phycological diseases may start showing up. ItвЂ™s an illusion but a very nice one - hence people are so excited and think they finally got an answer to their problems. By buying into the idea that all the sh.t that happened to you is because of that inner useless voice - we disempower ourselves and can blame that inner voice. But what about the fact that if properly used and managed - the fire can keep us warm, cook our food and create lots of beautiful and useful things? The author forgot that life is super intelligent and there is a balance in everything. Eliminate the fire from your life and all will be fine. ItвЂ™s like writing a book - вЂњFire is bad вЂњ, it can burn you and your house. It does talk bollocks sometimes but it also helps us. Really?! Is it that simple? That inner voice is there for a reason, like our heart, brain or teeth. Another example - To stop smoking all you need to do is not put the first cigarette in your mouth in the morning- as simple as that.

I understand why people praise this book- there is such an appealing idea described in this book, kind of an explanation that we have вЂњan enemyвЂќ in our head and we need to ignore that inner voice.вЂќIt is as simple as thatвЂќ - words from the book.

To be fair I shouldвЂ™ve given 2 stars instead of 1 star but after seeing so many 5 star reviews I felt I needed to balance it. I love personal development books but this one is really a waste of trees if you buy a hard copy in my opinion. This is the first time I decided to write a book review
