The Mind Is a Liar: How to Question Your Thoughts Before They Take Root
Send us Fan Mail
What if most of your thoughts aren’t actually true?
In this cozy Sunday morning conversation, Megan and Nate settle in with their coffee to unpack one of the most powerful ideas they’ve encountered lately: your thoughts are seeds — and you get to choose whether you’re planting flowers or weeds.
Inspired by a Kabbalah-based podcast and the science of the mind, they explore why we think 60,000–80,000 thoughts a day (and most of them are recycled and flat-out false), how to pause a negative thought before it becomes a belief, and what e...
