The "Oh Shit" Factor: Waste Management for Our Minds - Paperback

by Dave Thorne (Illustrator), Julie Ruffo (Author), Gayle Prather (Editor)

Edgy, humorous, informative and life changing, this book challenges what we know about what we put into our minds and what comes out of our mouths. The word "sh*t" is used as a metaphor for the toxic thoughts we put into our heads. This can result, says Jampolsky, in constipation of the mind which can eventually cause verbal diarrhea! What we put into our minds can be more important than the food we put into our mouths. Cleaning out our minds can be just as important as cleaning our teeth. This book is about spiritual transformation in which forgiveness is stated to be the best treatment for "waste management" of our minds and relieving mind constipation.
