    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.

    The Witch of Pungo - Grace...

    The authoritative cultural history of Virginia's most famous accused witch 
     
     
     
    In 1706, Grace Sherwood was "ducked" after her neighbors in Princess Anne County accused her of witchcraft. Binding and throwing her into the Lynnhaven River, they waited to see whether she would float to the top (evidence of her guilt) or sink (proof of her innocence). Incredibly, she survived. This bizarre spectacle became an early piece of Virginia folklore as stories about Sherwood, the "Witch of Pungo," spread. Her legend still looms large in Tidewater. In 2006, Governor Tim Kaine even issued an informal pardon of Sherwood, read aloud by the mayor of Virginia Beach before the annual reenactment of Sherwood's ducking. 
     
     
     
    This is the first book to explore Grace Sherwood's life and cultural impact in depth. Anyone interested in colonial Virginia, American folklore, and the history and legacy of witch trials will find much to enjoy in this spellbinding book.
