YOUR ERRONEOUS ZONES audiobook

YOUR ERRONEOUS ZONES by Wayne W. Dyer is a book that challenges you to question your emotional habits. Each chapter tackles a different erroneous zone (I.e. self-destructive behaviour) and walks through why the way we ALWAYS respond to situations isn’t necessarily the BEST way to respond to situations— even if the responses are ones that we as a collective label “normal.” Some of these erroneous zones include seeking approval from others, living in the past, feeding guilt/worry, perfectionism, the justice trap, procrastination, and more (hmmm, any of those feel familiar to you?! 😅🙋‍♀️)What I really appreciated about this one is the fact that it made me confront a lot of learned responses and think about how they may (or may not) be limiting me. Wayne emphasizes throughout each chapter that our emotions are choices—it often feels easier to submit to feelings of anger/sadness/doubt when they pop up, but we have the power to shift our headspace. We have a choice on what thoughts we choose to feed.The book is direct and doesn’t attempt to cushion hard truths. Although I’m nowhere near being free of every erroneous zones for the rest of my life (the last chapter walks through the life of a person free of all erroneous zones and I have yet to meet someone that has their shit together at that level LOL), it’s left me more determined to take control over my emotions. Overall, I’m going to be taking a look at Wayne’s other books in the future.... his writing style is really easy to follow, so I’m curious to see what other topics he explores. The book was originally published in the 70s, so there are definitely some dated examples, but still a lot of stuff relevant to 2021.An easy read that provoked some deep inner work... I suspect that this is one I’m going to reread at different stages of my life. 🙌

Un libro para leer y releer lo había visto recomendado multitud de veces pero no me animaba, me llego en el mejor momento es muy bueno y te abre la mente, estoy segura que volveré a él.Es un libro altamente adictivo por todo lo que nos transmite.

Este es el único libro que recuerdo, que cambió mi vida, en su momento.Yo lo leí a los 18 años. Empecé a ver mis relaciones con los demás de manera diferente.En ese tiempo estaba lejos de tener las experiencias y el conocimiento que tengo hoy, más aún, después de estudiar psicología, por eso ese libro en su momento me ayudó a abrir los ojos, a no caer en las trampas de los demas (que quizas crean sin intención), a no manejar culpas ni dejarmelas imponer, a no caer en manipulaciones, etc., etc.Es un excelente libro, que siempre he querido volver a leer.A lo mejor hoy muchas cosas me parezcan obvias, pero se que puede ser muy enriquecedor para muchas personas.

Fantastic! I read it when I was still a teen and then I have read it again a few years ago. The best book of its kind. All those new cheesy, overly simplistic authors who are proclaming they 'know how to find happiness and will take you there'and are now at Harvard delivering subjects on 'Happiness', should probably learn from Dyer. That said, Dyer's writing style has changed and I don't enjoy his actual work as much as I enjoyed his early work...but I don't buy 'happiness' books anymore, anyway.

Your Erroneous Zones is simply one of the greatest self-help books ever written. For people just beginning to read self-help or spiritual books, this book is a great place to start. It is nearly imperative that if one reads any book by Dr. Wayne Dyer that they start with this book. By reading his books in order of copyright, the amazing shift in his philosophy and interests over the years can be witnessed. Dr. Dyer has written so many books, but important books to follow with this one are "Pulling Your Own Strings," "Your Sacred Self," and "Manifest Your Destiny." Later works include "Change Your Thoughts - Change Your Life: Living the Wisdom of the Tao." Your Erroneous Zones is a book for people who are just beginning to discover that we all have thoughts that do not serve us towards living a self-fulfilled life. We are given erroneous viewpoints from childhood and can live a more self-actualized life by becoming aware of our self-defeating thoughts.http://www.returnoftheway.com/

Muy buen libro, es un básico para iniciar el camino a la mejora continua, el autoconocimiento, ser mejor persona.Para mí las zonas erróneas que más me movieron fue la injusticia y la procrastinación. A aceptar y soltar el hecho de que la vida no es justa y sin miedo al éxito!
