-Why you are not your thoughts
-How to find your purpose
-Why kindness is crucial to success
-And much more...

Shetty grew up in a family where you could become one of three things—a doctor, a lawyer, or a failure. His family was convinced he had chosen option three: instead of attending his college graduation ceremony, he headed to India to become a monk, to meditate every day for four to eight hours, and devote his life to helping others. After three years, one of his teachers told him that he would have more impact on the world if he left the monk’s path to share his experience and wisdom with others. Heavily in debt, and with no recognizable skills on his résumé, he moved back home in north London with his parents.

Shetty reconnected with old school friends—many working for some of the world’s largest corporations—who were experiencing tremendous stress, pressure, and unhappiness, and they invited Shetty to coach them on well-being, purpose, and mindfulness. Since then, Shetty has become one of the world’s most popular influencers. In 2017, he was named in the Forbes magazine 30-under-30 for being a game-changer in the world of media. In 2018, he had the #1 video on Facebook with over 360 million views. His social media following totals over 38 million, he has produced over 400 viral videos which have amassed more than 8 billion views, and his podcast, On Purpose, is consistently ranked the world’s #1 Health and Wellness podcast.

In this inspiring, empowering book, Shetty draws on his time as a monk to show us how we can clear the roadblocks to our potential and power. Combining ancient wisdom and his own rich experiences in the ashram, Think Like a Monk reveals how to overcome negative thoughts and habits, and access the calm and purpose that lie within all of us. He transforms abstract lessons into advice and exercises we can all apply to reduce stress, improve relationships, and give the gifts we find in ourselves to the world. Shetty proves that everyone can—and should—think like a monk.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"Jay Shetty, the British writer and narrator of this audiobook, showcases his considerable talent for motivational speaking as he explains his methods for reducing everyday stress. As a former Indian monk, he practiced how to live a clean and serene life. His keen observations and magnetic delivery will appeal to even the most materially driven individuals. By using simple meditations and mindfulness exercises, he keeps listeners focused in the present. He also introduces simple mantras to help clear the mind and uses easy directions to keep the recommended body movements fluid. As a monk, he was taught to believe that one's natural abilities are revealed through service to others. Shetty's dynamic presentation will convince listeners to consider giving these practices a try."

I love Jay to begin with. But this book summarizes how we can achieve eternal happiness. It made me cry. Made me realize how I am more negative than positive, I am mean than kind. It made me feel bad to be honest but also made me more aware of my actions and words. That I can exude positivity. I can be more grateful. Thank you Jay for laying it all out.
