By systematically questioning your beliefs, you can experience a profound sense of freedom and peace as you learn not to believe everything you think.đ
The method revolves around asking yourself four simple yet profound questions about every troubling belief:
Is it true?
Can you absolutely know itâs true?
How do you reactâwhat happensâwhen you believe that thought?
Who would you be without the thought?
