Synopsis

Do you feel stuck? Anxious?

Do you worry about the future? Are you searching for enlightenment, thinking you will be set free once you achieve it? Questions of free will, cause and effect, and wondering what this life is for, have plagued humankind since the dawn of time. Unfortunately, try as we might, attempting to answer these questions hasn’t brought us any closer to finding peace, ease, or happiness. Is it even possible to live with this uncertainty? After all, don’t we need all the answers to feel at peace?

Let Go and Discover True Peace

There is a freedom in ignorance and choicelessness. You don’t have to obsess over every life decision! You don’t need to go on a lifelong quest searching for the big “it”—that thing that is supposed to make your life complete. You can finally learn how to let go and relax into this present moment where there are no problems, no riddles to solve, and no worry about what’s to come. Everything is ok when you relax into what is—even if it’s just for a millisecond. There’s nothing to do, nothing to figure out, and nothing to work towards. This is the true definition of peace. Nothing is missing. Nothing is wrong.

The Answer to All Your Life Questions

In Stuff You Ask, author Joey Lott posits that this—this moment right now—is “it.” You can stop searching for answers! It’s all right here, right now. Lott takes all your most pressing life questions and puts a totally new spin on how to look at them. You’ll learn to relax and find peace through a simple process that takes only a fraction of a second to perform. You can finally stop searching for answers outside of yourself and have your mind blown wide open with some truly original philosophy. This is it. The search is over.

Available on Kindle and paperback.

About this title

About the Author

"The secret to happiness is to let go of everything - see through every assumption."

Beginning at a young age Joey Lott experienced intensifying anxiety. For several decades he lived with restrictive eating disorders, obsessions, compulsions, and an inescapable fear. By the time he was 30 years old he was physically sick, emotionally volatile, and mentally obsessed with keeping any and all unwanted thoughts and experiences at bay.

At this time Lott was living on a futon mattress in a tiny cabin in the woods. He was so sick that he could barely move. He was deeply depressed and hopeless. All this despite doing all the "right" things such as years of meditation, yoga, various "perfect" diets, clean air, and pure water.

Just when things were at their most dire, a crack appeared in the conceptual world that had formerly been mistaken for reality. By peering into this crack and underneath all the assumptions that had been unquestioned up to that moment, Lott began a great undoing. The revelation of this undoing is that reality is utterly simple, ever-present, seamless, and indivisible.

Lott's books provide a glimpse into the seamless, simple, and joyous nature of reality, offering a glimpse through the crack in conceptual worlds. Whether writing about the ultimate non-dual nature of reality, eating disorders, stress, disease, or any other subject, he offers the invitation to look at things differently, leaving behind the old, out-grown, painful limitations we have used to bind ourselves in suffering. And then, he welcomes you home to the effortless simplicity of yourself as you are.

Not sure where to begin? Pick up a copy of Lott's most popular book, You're Trying Too Hard, which strips away all the concepts that keep us searching for a greater, more spiritual, more peaceful life or self.
