This month, we've been reading Soundtracks by New York Times bestselling author Jon Acuff, designed to help you stop overthinking by asking whether your thoughts are true, letting go of unhelpful and unkind ideas, learning how to replace broken soundtracks with new ones, collecting thoughtful affirmations and mantras, and using symbols to remind you of positive thoughts.

I had a lot of highlighted sections when I finished reading this book. Today, I'm sharing 5 big-picture takeaways, so let's dive in.
