Let me tell you what this book is not. It' s not about religion. It' s not about telling you how to live your life. It' s not about taking on a new set of beliefs. Plain and simple, it' s about how to relate to your own thoughts and emotions in a way that makes your life more enjoyable, more free, brighter, clearer and wiser. We like to think we understand what' s happening around us; that we can determine the path our life takes. But often, things don' t go that way - in fact, they rarely do. What helps us respond to life as it unfolds? To live freely, stay humble and find comfort in difficult times? In the Swedish sensation I May Be Wrong, former forest monk Bjoern Natthiko Lindeblad shows how letting go of our need for control is about finding the courage to face the uncertainty that is a natural part of life. We don' t choose our thoughts. We don' t control the shape they take, or what pops into our minds. We can only choose whether or not to believe them. Infusing the everyday with heart and grace, this is a book of timeless wisdom to help us all navigate the realities of modern life. ' Every now and then a self-help book comes along that genuinely stays with you - and this is one such book . . . It will encourage you to let go of the small stuff, accept the things you cannot control and open your heart and mind to a more happy and peaceful life' Woman & Home' With our potential to maintain a peaceful state of mind, it is possible to remain optimistic in the face of difficulties. Bjoern Natthiko Lindeblad, a former forest monk in Thailand, relates his experience of training to properly direct his thoughts which can benefit all' His Holiness the Dalai Lama

Bjoern Natthiko Lindeblad (born 1961) is a Swedish public speaker, meditation teacher and former Buddhist monk. In his mid-twenties Bjoern swapped his career as a business executive for life as a forest monk in the jungles of Thailand. There he was given the name Natthiko, meaning ' one who grows in wisdom' . After seventeen years as a monk he returned to Swedish society and, in 2018, was diagnosed with the incurable disease ALS. I May Be Wrong, his first book, was an instant number one bestseller in Sweden, and won both the Adlibris and Storytel Award for Best Non-Fiction.
