If you're like most people, you have a voice in your head telling you to work harder, be better, make more friends, and screw up less. It frowns at your mistakes, warns you that your list needs tending, and questions your attractiveness. It's a bully. And you don't actually need it.
Better Days will help you confront and immobilize the superego ~ that nagging little voice in your head that sneers at your mistakes, questions your worth, and whose snarky commentary keeps you stuck in a childish cycle of reward and punishment.
The method is simple, fun, and riveting: First, you meet your inner critic. Then you talk to it. Then you speak up whenever it pokes in. Eventually, it gets the picture that you don’t need it, and it shuts up. Along the way you'll learn a dozen specific techniques anyone can use to move it to the side and reduce anxiety, increase satisfaction, and find your own freedom.
WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT BETTER DAYS
“A novel and well-articulated approach to intentionality.”
“No other system has ever so efficiently broken through my lifelong sense of isolation as the work you are about to encounter, and at the same time, been so welcoming and even fun. Better Days will help you get to know your inner critic, and quiet its yammering, and in so doing, get to know the person you were born to be”
“In Neal Allen’s book, you’ll find a tool to help meet one of the most daunting challenges to a better life: that voice that has taken up residence inside you and berates, cajoles, warns you every step of the way. The tool can help you sleep better, work better, help you find a sense of ease in your life.”
“A playful and compassionate book about confronting the mental chatter that keeps us from mental peace and quiet. Neal Allen writes as a friend and guide ready to put an arm around you and say, “Let’s see if we can get the neighbors to pipe down a bit.”
“This book is an invitation to separate the helpful parts of what we call our ego from the defensive, self-righteous, and sullen parts of it that no longer serve us. Allen shows readers that there is a more joyful, honest, and peaceful way to exist once the harsh critic within is understood and transformed.”

“I’ve gotten to know my parasitic superego. It’s a construction, a facsimile of a person, with its own distinct personality. It doesn’t sit inside me. It hovers just outside, a whisperer. It’s a humanoid creature. I have conversations with it. It’s about as embedded and present as a four-year-old’s imaginary friend. The parasite and its foul mouth are the bad news. The good news is that I have quieted mine, and you can immobilize yours, too. It’s pretty simple. If you long for a life of freedom, of peace of mind and satisfaction, I can show you how. ”
