The story of the Ramayana had been told innumerable times. The enthralling story of Rama, the incarnation of God, who slew Ravana, the evil demon of darkness, is known to every Indian. And in the pages of history, as always, it is the version told by the victors that lives on. The voice of the vanquished remains lost in silence. But what if Ravana and his people had a different story to tell? The story of the Ravanayana had never been told. Asura is the epic tale of the vanquished Asura people, a story that has been cherished by the oppressed outcastes of India for 3,000 years.

In Meri Gita, acclaimed mythologist Devdutt Pattanaik demystifies The Bhagavad Gita for the contemporary listener. His unique approach - thematic rather than verse-by-verse - makes the ancient treatise eminently accessible.In a world that seems spellbound by argument over dialogue, vi-vaad over sam-vaad, Devdutt highlights how Krishna nudges Arjuna to understand rather than judge his relationships. This becomes relevant today when we are increasingly indulging and isolating the self.

This book is a compilation of coaching sessions of 6 different people and Mel Robbins coaching them with ways of conquering their fears and uncertainty. And at the same time you get coached as well. Would love to listen to it all over once again. Highly recommend for those who are searching for a self development book.

Wanted to love it
I love Mel Robbins and think she is very gifted motivational speaker. I purchased the book to gain some insight on how to overcome fear. However, the format of the book (listening to various therapy sessions) did not leave me feeling uplifted, but rather depressed. Some of the stories involve very complex personality issues, stories of abuse, etc. I have no doubt Mel was enormously helpful for these individuals, but I found this audiobook very difficult to listen to. I ended up scanning through and attempting to listen to each story and ultimately returned it.

You are the CEO of your life
This book brought awareness of my negative beliefs, thoughts and body language. I discovered my fear and it really changed how I view the world now. I have been a chameleon, people pleaser most of my life. I couldn't believe that I did it without thinking. No wonder why I have so much anger, resentment built inside of me. I now know why I get so defensive and judgmental. It was awesome to hear the coach sessions because I am not alone and it feels good knowing other people struggle with the same issues. The techniques Mel talks about in each session is game changing. I apply them one day at a time, brick by brick and in small doses so I don;t get overwhelmed and end up with the reverse effect. I unfollowed so many people on all my social media channels to get that poison out of my life and it really works. The only things I see now are things that make me happy, empower me and help me get to my dream and goals. Changing your mindset and gaining control of your mind is truly the most powerful thing a person can do for themselves. It is truly game changing and empowering. I am so proud of myself for taking these steps and investing in me. Mel, you helped me change my mind and I love you for it. I can't wait for the next book to come out....your talk show... and new videos... You saved me from living a dark depressing life... I am now the CEO of my life, thoughts, dreams and actions...

Stop living in fear
When I turned this book on I wasn't sure what to expect. Much of self help seems to be a repeat of the same stuff (get up early, stop being a victim, meditate, eat healthy, think positive, ect) so I wasn't sure what spin Mel would bring to this topic. I am a big fan of Mel's and did listen to Kick Ass, her last book. I loved Kick Ass so I did have high hopes for this. When I saw Mel mention her new book in her newsletter I downloaded it right away. Now that I've finished–WOW is all I can say. First, it's way way longer than Kick Ass and has tons of information in it. So much. It's all about how fear holds us back and how we can figure out the way that fear affects us as a person and change that. Mel says that it doesn't matter what other habits you have if you're held hostage by fear, and that really rang true with me. Like Kick Ass this book has coaching sessions, but in this case the coaching sessions were more of teaching moment. Then, after each session, Mel would talk for over an hour about each, sharing advice and takeaways. My favorite part of the book was when Mel shared her personal stories. I didn't realize how funny she is! I also liked how there were a variety of people coached. While I definitely resonated with some more than others, I did get something from each one. I also thought it was good how Mel really went through each action item in a ton of detail and shared the research and science behind what she was teaching. As I was listening the only downside was that there is SO much information covered that it was hard to remember it all (I listened to most of it in the car). Which is why I am so happy to see that Audible included a workbook in my library. I took a look at the workbook and saw that the lessons are all summarized which is so helpful! I am going to start filling out the workbook this weekend. Overall, Mel, you have done it again. This book was such an amazing listen and I couldn't believe how many times I nodded my head thinking "SHE GETS ME."

The fastest 10hr audiobook I've ever heard!
Honestly, this felt to me like a one hour book.
It is LIFE CHANGING, thought-modifying, relationship-building and boundary-setting all at once.
Perhaps because this showed up in Divine Timing for me.
Quite frankly, I was put off by the title as my life is not "out of control", but this has been a great kick in the posterior and a magnifying mirror enlarging my unpolished corners. Time for a shoe shine.
ps- I have never heard of the author prior to getting the book and her accent or voice (not sure which) aggravates me (I was raised abroad).
Yet, I got over myself as the author is as effective as an awful-tasting medicine you know you need.
If you can stomach the truth, the finish will be sweet.
Buckle Up!
Your life is about to change...

Wow. I'm just finishing up this audiobook and I feel like I'm going to need a few days to digest this.

Though I resonated with everyone in this book to some extent, I think I am most like Dan. Sooo much I want to do in this lifetime and there are days it feels like I'm running out of time. But now I understand that by living in that kind of mindset, time is actually moving faster. OMG, so true! So this past weekend I scheduled a few minutes to sloooow way down, and I planned a few bricks for the week. :) Thanks, Mel! Loving your work.

Silence Your Fears
From a young age, many of us were taught to look on the bright side whenever life beat us down. But according to Mel Robbins, staying positive might actually be causing the beatings life keeps handing out. Mel engages six fear-avoidant friends in deep, honest, and difficult discussions—six living, breathing case studies on silencing lifelong fears. In doing so, every listener becomes a participant in a greater, more meaningful conversation—one that will stick with you long after you're done listening.

Frighteningly brilliant
This book should come with a warning!! “Do not read unless you want a profound wake up call”!!!
Seriously though, what an amazing experience to share other people’s stories and see yourself in (almost) every example. “I do that” “That’s me”
I guess now I have to face the fear, change the patterns and become the person I want, and deserve, to be. ❤️

I can save you the bother of listening ...
...in one sentence...find out what provokes fear in you and 'address' it....not especially helpful. Seems like a nice enough woman but not life changing stuff. I'm not a big fan of case histories there's no 6 sizes fit all.

Very VERY Americanised! (Us British will find it hard to listen)
I want to say I did enjoy this audible and you can always take away some key points!
However being British I really struggled with the Americanised 1 to 1 interviews where it did seem very very set up and false! Never felt genuine, Mels responses were far to quick before the individuals finished there sentences.
I prefer raw, factual, straight forward believable stories where they don’t feel set up, over the top and Americanised!
Yes you can take some good points but overall I would not have chosen this audio and I feel a lot of other British listeners will understand when I say there are some major Cringe moments at the American OTT mentoring going on.
I do not wish to run this audio down but I wanted to be honest.
I liked 5 second rule but this isn’t for me. (So much so I actually pressed the skip button through the interviews because I just couldn’t bring myself to listen to the way they were taking)

The most powerful and valuable listen, ever
I’ve learned so much from this even though I’ve done a ton of work to figure me out in the last 10yrs.
It gets right to the point in a caring, no nonsense way which is deeply moving, helpful and refreshing.
Each coaching session Mel shares here had take aways for me. Now for the action.
I plan on returning here in 6 months with a new review and an update of how much I’ve improved my life after Mel so wonderfully spot lighted a multitude of issues and solutions to take action on.
Game changer.

Not for me this time
I normally LOVE Mel Robbins books, but this one just felt contrived. It is 'real' sessions with various people who are held back in achieving their goals due to the fears they hold. On some sessions Mel appeared to coax them into saying how they felt, by a strange coincidence, she too had the same fears/traits as each of the 3 sessions I listened to (I think there are 6)
I will be returning this book, I persevered with a few sessions in the hope it would improve, but to be honest the people just seemed to whinge, with no real issues that needed solving, it was like they just wanted to meet Mel Robbins, so said all the things they thought she wanted to hear, it even made me doubt they were real - it was nothing like Kick Ass which I absolutely loved.
I hope Mel does not churn out any other mundane books like this, stick to the coaching that you are absolutely brilliant at. Make people think differently to bring about change in their life....but not this nonsense with people crying because they had strict parents and they only got 93 in a test - Jeez!!!!!

Mel Robbins is awesome!
Down-to-earth, straight-talking Mel had me laughing out loud a couple of times, and I am so glad I got this book. Will listen again, and probably get some of her other titles as well, but need to work thoroughly through this and the worksheet first. And then, I may probably not need more selfhelp books and can go back to fiction! 😂😂

Life - changing!
Mel is perceptive, compassionate and relatable. I powerfully connected to the issues raised in this book- it opened new and healing ways of dealing with the things that hold so many of us back. One of, if not the most impactful book of its kind I have read (or listened to!)

AMAZING!
Mel has upped her game which I personally didn't think was possible. She takes the personal development game to a new level. This audio is helping me overcome my desire for perfectionism and get on with LIFE! Love you Mel xox

Truly on one the best I’ve listened to - and I’ve listened to many! Heaps of key takeaways resonated and brought me to tears as I had my own mini breakthroughs. Highly recommended.

Game Changer!
It is very rare that I would believe a review that says a book will change your life so when I say that this audiobook will change your life it is not said lightly! For anyone willing to look inwards and take control of their life, this is a game changer. It is like a coaching session for yourself with Mel and is so relevant to all of us! Thank you Mel for this wonderful piece of work!

Audio-book?
Not an audoobook but a replay of someone's workday. No questions about the authors knowledge, enthusiasm or personality. Though I felt a little robbed with book when it just turned into recordings of conversations with clients. Not what I would look for in a book, perhaps a podcast.

cases study and pragmatic advices to fix your fear
Cases are well picked, so everyone with anxiety problems can relate to one of them.
Analysis are pragmatic and clear to help you to tackle your own issues.
A very good book to help you understand yourself and your own mental pattern.

This book will change your life.
No, really. It will change your life. I’ve recommended to friends, and they’ve recommended it to more friends. It triggered so much in me so deeply, that I was shocked at first but now feeling liberated.

Thinking too big
I’ve been paralysed in moving forward with the things I need to do. It’s actually very clear what I need to do. I just can’t move because I haven’t got all the rest of what I’m going to do after I make the change fully planned out. So I do nothing. Stuck stuck stuck. I’m only one chapter in and it’s amazing the insights I’ve had into what’s stopping me. In line with my thinking too big mindset I was going listen to it all in one night. I’m happy to go to sleep now thinking about what I’ve learned about myself so far and how to quiet the busyness of my life so that I can grow. I can’t wait to listen to the book and tackle the workbook. Thank you.

So many light-bulb moments!
I am a huge fan of Mel Robbins. Her coaching and way of talking through things is raw and real...she is a straight shooter and pragmatic in her advice. No beating around the bush. Mel calls it as she sees it and gives you the hard truths you need to hear but also explains why you need to hear it and how to overcome the challenges you didn't even understand until that point. I saw something in myself in each of the people she coached in this book and got so much out of it. It's made me more aware of the challenges I have to work through AND more importantly that I CAN work through them...it's not hopeless. You can reprogram yourself to be more free, confident, connected with others and happy.
