Living With OCD - How to Stop...

Bessie Brielle McKnight

Listen, your mind isn't broken - it's just doing what minds do when they get stuck in rigid, irrational thinking patterns. After decades of clinical practice, I've seen how OCD operates: it's not some mysterious force, but a pattern of demanding absolute certainty in an uncertain world. 
This book cuts through the mystification and gets to what works: learning to accept uncertainty, challenging perfectionist demands, and building tolerance for discomfort. No sugar-coating, no magical thinking - just evidence-based techniques for reducing your suffering. 
You'll learn to spot the difference between healthy concerns and obsessive thinking, develop more flexible responses to triggering situations, and most importantly, stop fighting with your own thoughts. Because here's the reality: the more you desperately try to control your thoughts, the more they control you. 
Let's get to work on transforming your relationship with uncertainty. It won't always be comfortable, but neither is living under OCD's thumb.

Finding Your Own Way - The...

Osho

The Sutra of 42 Chapters is a scripture complied in the first century CE. Each saying comes from Buddha, but the whole work was a new anthology created especially for introducing Buddhism in a new country. That's why it makes such a good, basic introduction to the world view of Gautam Buddha.

It is very simple in its approach, very direct. It is, in essence the whole of Buddha's message, but very simple, not elaborate and very scholarly as other Buddhist scriptures are.
Osho extracts the kernel of Buddha's profound insight and understanding and presents his everlasting message to the contemporary listener in a manner that is lucid, straightforward and humorous. Far from being just a statue, here Buddha is an amazing human being so far ahead of his time that even now he is only just beginning to be more widely understood.
In these talks Osho discusses the need for doubt and argument in the spiritual search, the nature of desire and the discipline of non-attachment.
The talks in this audiobook are a series of original OSHO Talks, titled "The Discipline of Transcendence, Vol.1".
Vol.01 FINDING YOUR OWN WAY

- The Most Excellent Way
- The Greatest Miracle
- Only Nothing Is
- Two Empty Skies Meeting
- Real Repentance Is Remembering
- Nothing Is Lacking
- Living the Dhamma
- Sincerity in the Search
- The Truth beyond Magic
- Thus Come, Thus GoneAn abridged edition of this series of talks was published as an audiobook under the title "The Buddha Said", which included only the chapters in which Osho comments on the original sutras by Buddha. This series is the full experience.
