About this listen

2021 Audiobook of the Year – The British Book Awards

The Sunday Times Number One Bestseller

Jay Shetty, social media superstar and host of the #1 podcast ‘On Purpose’, distils the timeless wisdom he learned as a practising monk into practical steps anyone can take every day to live a less anxious, more meaningful life.

Over recent years, Jay Shetty has become a favourite in the hearts and minds of millions of people worldwide. His social media following totals over 32 million, he has produced over 400 viral videos, which have amassed more than 5 billion views, and his podcast, ‘On Purpose’, is consistently ranked the world’s #1 health-related podcast.

In this inspiring, empowering book, Shetty draws on his time as a monk in the Vedic tradition to show us how we can clear the roadblocks to our potential and power. Drawing on ancient wisdom and his own rich experiences in the ashram, Think Like a Monk reveals how to overcome negative thoughts and habits, and access the calm and purpose that lie within all of us.

The lessons monks learn are profound but often abstract. Shetty transforms them into advice and exercises we can all apply to reduce stress, boost focus, improve relationships, identify our hidden abilities, increase self-discipline and give the gifts we find in ourselves to the world. Shetty proves that everyone can – and should – think like a monk.

Realistic approach to a fulfilled life

I loved the content. it's very useful. It made me travel into my inner self and motivated me to understand the purpose of the rest of my life. it guided me how to live and what aspects to improve and imbibe in my life...what attitudes I need to change in order to live a fulfilled life...a life of purpose.

I must thank Jay Shetty for his endeavour to share his experiences and the pain he took to enumerate all that he went through as a monk....his motive of service...of helping out others ...telling them how to lead a life of peace and harmony...is commendable and divine.
All the content was read by him...it was like listening to his experiences personally.....

I thank Jay for writing this book...
and also thank him for reading it out for us.

May god shower his choicest blessings on him...giving him health and energy to inspire more people.
