Condition: BRAND NEW. Format: Paperback. ISBN: 9789370030305. Publisher: Rupa Publications. Overview:. Don't Trust Everything You Think: Unlearning Noise in Your Head is a practical guide for adults overwhelmed by an overactive inner critic. Written by cognitive behavioural coach Noa Ellery, it unpacks how everyday thoughts mislead us, offering grounded, evidence-based tools to pause, question, and reframe destructive mental patterns. An approachable read for calmer, clearer thinking without dense psychological jargon.. About the Book:. Our minds constantly narrate our lives, but not every thought deserves our trust. In this thoughtful non-fiction title, Noa Ellery draws on years spent working in mental health programmes to explore why the brain generates so much unhelpful "noise" and how to tell a genuinely useful thought from an unreliable one. The book moves through recognisable everyday scenarios, worry before a big meeting, harsh self-judgement after a mistake, catastrophic thinking when plans change, and gently breaks down the habits behind them. Rather than vague affirmations, Ellery offers concrete, repeatable techniques rooted in cognitive behavioural approaches: naming a thought pattern, creating distance from it, and testing whether it holds up to scrutiny. The tone is warm and conversational, more like a knowledgeable friend than a clinical textbook, making the material easy to absorb even on a stressful day. Chapters build steadily, moving from understanding why intrusive or unhelpful thoughts arise, to practical strategies for defusing them in the moment. Along the way, the book touches on modern pressures, comparison culture, digital overload, and the pace of daily life, that make mental noise louder than ever. It's designed to be used, not just read: readers are encouraged to try reflective exercises and revisit sections as situations arise. For anyone tired of feeling ruled by their own mind, this is a clear, reassuring roadmap back to steadier thin
