Breaking Free from the Monkey Mind: Insights with J.F. Benoist

The monkey mind confuses the story with reality, and the observing mind understands that the story is just the story.
Ever feel like your mind is a chaotic jungle, swinging from one negative thought to another? You're not alone. In this engaging episode of 'Soberful', hosts Veronica Valli and Chip Somers sit down with J.F. Benoist, author of 'Addicted to the Monkey Mind'. Benoist unpacks how our inner critic and limiting beliefs can trap us in cycles of addiction and unhappiness.
He introduces the concept of the Observing Mind, a tool to help us step back and see our thoughts for what they really are – just stories, not reality. Together, they discuss how understanding this can pave the way for authentic connections and emotional healing. Tune in to discover practical strategies for overcoming addiction, facing fears head-on, and embracing a more genuine life. Perfect for anyone seeking clarity and growth on their sobriety journey.
