According to psychotherapist Colier (
The Power of Off), rumination, or obsessional thinking, is at the root of many people’s problems. It causes problems in life and overall well-being because it’s not productive and increases stress and anxiety. This guide describes types of rumination, including self-criticism, negativity, fear, and worry. Colier offers substitute behaviors to counteract negative thoughts, such as replacement, redirecting attention, and facing the fear of letting go. She concludes with a vision of a free inner life, and advocates “surrender” as an opportunity to experience life fully.
VERDICT While there is more verbiage than necessary, this book offers solid relief and a way forward from obsessional thinking.
