“Dark thoughts in the mind are not “you” but are false messages from the brain.
And because you are not your brain, you don’t have to listen to them.”

Jeffery M. Schwartz MD

“A thought is harmless unless we believe it. It is not our thoughts, but the
attachment to our thoughts, that causes suffering. Attaching to a thought means
believing it is true, without inquiring. A belief is a thought that we have been
attaching to, often for years.”

Byron Katie

“Before every session, I take a moment to remember my humanity. There is no
experience that this man has that I cannot share with him, no fear that I cannot
understand, no suffering that I cannot care about. Because I, too, am human.”

​Carl R. Rogers
