And if you talk to yourself in the same way, you will end up an emotional train wreck. Here is a book that will teach you to abandon negative thinking and embrace a life of emotional health and professional success. Cynthia Kane defines negative self-talk as the vehicle by which we pass judgments on ourselves for mistakes and circumstances, even for something as trivial as wearing the wrong shoes with the wrong belt. These judgments have a way of accumulating and inflating so that they damage emotional health and sabotage professional success. Rooted in Buddhist teaching and incorporating contemporary mindfulness teachings. This book encourages readers to overcome both with internalized thoughts and spoken words. She outlines a proven method for overcoming self-judgment and negative self-talk.
