The 'Never Mind Your Mind' Micro-Course

A firm foundation to start the journey of deepening our sense of spirituality, using simple insights, tools and affirmations for unhooking from unhelpful thoughts.

For those people who have completed the full Never Mind Your Mind course, this will act not only as a refresher to what you've already covered within this course, but as a complement to it. Why? Because there are a few extra tips and tools in this Never Mind Your Mind micro-course that are a different. Either way, if you're interested in this notion of not minding the mind as much, then this is a win-win situation for you.

Leçon 1: There Is My Mind And Here I Am

Those thoughts… It’s not just you! As soon as the day starts, so does the mind going about its job. Let’s set the scene here by exploring an exercise to help us experience looking at our thoughts, instead of from them.

Leçon 2: The Science of Thinking Patterns

Now we need to explore this tendency of us to get caught up in minding, minding our minds. We explore some of the research around the thinking patterns that we have as humans, and how in the modern world today we tend to view things as a problem.

Leçon 3: Stone Age Mind - Modern Mind

Here we explore examples of a typical Stone Age mind years ago, and compare this with our modern minds today. The similarities are interesting, as well as absolutely essential for helping us not mind our minds as much.

Leçon 4: Questions For Perspective

Now we are going to explore some classic questions. Feel free to cherry pick one or two that you feel could help you unhook from your unhelpful thoughts, so as not to mind your mind as much. Perspective taking is so helpful for this.

Leçon 5: The Negative Thought Narrative

It’s not our thoughts that are the problem. It’s the relationship to our thoughts that is the problem. We can now begin to make sense of this by exploring The Negative Thought Narrative. This is something that’s been programmed into us all, in one way or another.

Reviews

Sooooo Good !!! I am addicted lol…learning more each time I listen. Thank you so much for creating this series 🙏❤️🙏You are saving lives!

This course has been incredibly helpful for me and I can't wait to start the longer version.
I have learned to question my thoughts and to try and find out the message behind this thought. Above all I have learned not to judge myself, but to treat myself with compassion and understanding.
And now I try to start each day with a specific intention that helps me to focus more on helpful thoughts.
I know I've only just begun and there's still a long way to go, but I'm happy and ready to take it.

Thank you so much Reuben, I appreciate you and the work you do here on Insight Timer.

Why is it that we have helpful vs unhelpful thoughts and entrenched thinking patterns.

I had another similar experience this morning when I was talking to a family member, and as soon as they had a unhealthy, unhelpful thoughts, I was consuming my energy, of their unhelpful thoughts and then I immediately got up, and started to walk away to my bedroom and I felt “triggered and traumatised”again, and I started to listen to your responses from the previous days 3 and 4, through this macro course, and those “unhelpful” feelings rubbed off and I cleared my head. I am feeling better now. Thank you 🙏🏿 Reuben. See you soon for Day 1 of the full Never Mind Your Mind 12 day course and your live event tomorrow.

Non pathologising and practical steps for managing unhelpful thinking

Highly insightful course! Simple but effective tools well explained that stick with you. Really enjoyed it and will continue with the longer course, excited to learn more about the mind. 🧠Also really enjoyed the narration, such a soothing voice. The affirmations at the end of the days are lovely. Thank you Reuben!!

Really great micro course, interesting and lots of ideas to live well with your mind. I will be giving the macro course a go very soon. Many thanks Reuben. 🙏

As always, I pick up so many helpful tools with Reuben's courses. Easy to understand, bite sized ideas that I can easily try to incorporate into my daily life. I am going to look for the main never Mind Your Mind course now.

I like the simplicity of towards and away. Incrementally, all we need to do is to move in the right direction. Slow and steady wins the race.

This micro course has completely peaked my interest in the deeper work. I will be researching that now! Thank you.

Thank you! I did your Never Mind Your Mind course and this was a great refresher.

Wonderful mini course. Thank you! I am now going to take the full course.

I thoroughly enjoyed this mini course as it refreshed my mind of the teachings and insights I’ve had in the past. Thank you. 🙏🏼

Great mini course with very helpful insights. I really liked the format with learning followed by affirmation. There are gold nuggets in the mini course, and I’m looking forward to the full course. Thank you! ❤️

Great course. I really enjoyed it and found it very helpful in my journey. Beautiful voice. Gentle presentation. Highly recommended

I’m very grateful for this course. I did learn a bit about myself, so that’s a bonus.
🙏🏽

Thank you for this insightful course.
I will check out the main course.

This is an excellent course! Five days to get some very helpful thinking tools, questions that started me thinking in a different way. Also answered a lot of questions before I put them into words. You know the ones that simmer in the back ground in your head that you didn't know you had until an answer presented itself, if you know what I mean.
I highly recommend this course! There is a larger one that look forward to take part of.

Really enjoyed this course, there was some simple yet effective tools to help you change your thought patterns . For example is this thought helpful or unhelpful? In bringing you to the person you want to be.
I am planning to use this every day until it becomes second nature.
Thank you, Ruben for providing us with this course.

Thanks so much Reuben. Another great micro course. I really like the way you offer so many different techniques in all your courses so we can pick what works best for us. I'm about to start the full NMYM course, see you there 😊

The way we think gives birth to the life we live. In my estimation, few people study "thinking" and what it will mean to their life, achieving/designing the life they want to live. This micro course is a great primer to gaining greater understanding in mastering your thoughts and your life.
