  • Ive been mostly reading and spending time with the kids (8,4,1). We are settling into our new place as we just moved from WA state to AZ for a number of reasons, including just too much blue out there for our tastes. Loving the new area. Current book: Thou Shall Prosper by Rabbi Daniel Lapin




    That sounds like an interesting topic; how the subconscious works. I am usually pretty interested in psychological topics like that.


    I started reading "The Power of Your Subconscious Mind" by Joseph Murphy and "Think and Grow Rich" by Napoleon Hill. I then read a couple more books by Joseph Murphy and also "Self-Esteem" by Matthew McKay and Patrick Fanning. Now I am reading "Total Law of Attraction" by David Che.​

    I have heard of the book you are reading, but never looked into it. That one might be next on the list!

  • I will check out "The Power of your subconscious mind" once Im done. That sounds like a fascinating topic no matter which direction it takes. This is the first book by Rabbi Lapin Ive read, but I have listened to his podcast for years and really appreciate his worldview. I would list the other books Ive been reading, but they are pretty much all books on mussar (Ethics in Judaism) so it would probably be too niche to be interesting to anyone else Slight smile
  • - What started me on this track was a prayer by Jesus in John 17:23 where He discusses "unity". That lead me down a path of what "unity" looks like if God is in Jesus and Jesus is in the people. Which lead me down to trying to understand "oneness" and "unity", which then lead me down to reframing the subconscious mind and how one thinks. This is getting pretty deep, but I am actually enjoying the process. Welcome to my rabbit hole!
