Get Over It!: Thought Therapy for Healing the Hard Stuff

by Iyanla Vanzant

Today—as repeated attempts to "fix ourselves and our lives" fail—many of us face unprecedented fears about the future, struggle with unspeakable life tragedies, and sink under the belief that certain lives do not matter in our society. Others confront our epidemic of anxiety with fierce resistance, or "the fight to be right," criticizing anyone and everyone just to end up stuck. In the face of such pervasive human suffering, New York Times best-selling author and legendary life coach Iyanla Vanzant challenges What if it’s not them—what if it’s you? What if you need to "get over it"—and get over yourself? Because no matter how much we would like to blame people and circumstances beyond our control, the truth is staggeringly anything and everything we experience is a function of what and how we think. In Get Over It! Iyanla offers a unique spiritual technology called "thought therapy," a process that harnesses proven spiritual tools with the science of neuroplasticity. The 42 prayers and affirmations, and complementary energy-clearing tools at the heart of the thought therapy process are designed to neutralize and eliminate the unconscious, unproductive, soul-destroying dominant negative thought patterns (DNTPs) and discordant emotional energies, allowing you to get to the root cause of your personal suffering, and make life-affirming choices. If you’re ready to break free of your ego’s resistance and willing to face yourself, willing to change, and willing to heal and grow—then now’s the time to Get Over It!

This was an engaging spiritual book that took me through the process of how negative thinking can be your downfall... and how mind over matter can change your negative thought patterns.

[Susan Mccarthy · Rating 5 out of 5]

I loved it - the advice is practical, though not easy. I love the honesty in her writing and there is not a book she has written that has not inspired me. One of my favorite authors!

[Amaka · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book is amazing, motivating, and inspiring at the same time. I highly recommend this book to those who wish to get rid of Negative thoughts and energy. The healing prayers were well structured and divinely inspired.

Self help books resonate with each person differently. This one really resonates with me for so many reasons. I like that God is a focal point, first and foremost (not just MY God but it is stressed to use "your" spiritual being..nothing is left out). The information is shared in stories, and is relate-able. The process is explained clearly and, while I can see that attending her sessions in person would be very impactful, the process is very well explained. The examples provided are actually meant to be the tools to use... all the guesswork has been taken out of the process so someone can actually DO the steps, and that is the biggest difference between other self-help books I've read and this one.

I'm marking this as a favorite because I think it's probably the best "self help" book I've ever read.

I initially saw Iyanla Vanzant on the Harry Connick Jr. show, and was curious about the book she just published. I fell in love with her on his show (I'm in love with Harry too -- I mean... he's so likeable!), and she said so much that just made sense. I'm going to read more of her books. Of course, not everything makes me want to jump in and follow along, but her message is so positive and strong. I'm a new fan.

This was pretty good, pretty much what I expected. I will have to make a PDF file and keep it in my phone to actually do what the book suggests though. Its not a very simple technique. The thought therapy has several affirmations, prayers, and negative thoughts. Not very practical to use on the spot but its worth a shot if you have a mini version of the book handy or you do the practice twice a day with the book

This book is a must read for anyone needing a change in the way they think. This book is will give the tools to change your negative thought patterns and in turn change your life!!

5⭐️ Not usually a fan of Iyanla Vanzant because I’m sensitive and I don’t care for her attitude but this is a book I go back to regularly and it is one I have used to help friends through different issues. A great reference book for self care. She uses “God” a lot but also lets it be known that you can replace “God” with “Self”, your name, “Goddess” or whatever your higher self is. It’s inclusive, which I appreciate.

There are many things I love about Iyanla, but the main thing I love is you will not get any BS from her. She is what she is and she does what she does and owns up to her responsibility to self and her role in it! You can’t get any more real than that.

I absolutely love watching her show Iyanla Fix My Life on OWN. And what’s funny is, having watched her on television, at no point did it ever occur to me to read one of her self-help books. Well, duh, what was I thinking? When I saw her pretty face on the cover of Get Over It, I said you know what, I’m going to read this lady’s words because I love her on TV and what she does for the wounded souls out here.

If you’ve had the pleasure of watching her in action, as I have, then you will absolutely one hundred percent love her latest book. When I tell you she gives you the lessons in which you need to help guide your life in the correct direction, I mean that whole-heartedly. There were so many sections of this book that I highlighted for future reference because I plan to ‘do the work’ as she so eloquently advises her clients. I pray that I can be so fortunate as to take one of her live workshops, but at this time, I’ll just settle for her online workshops. Iyanla makes my damn day—you hear me! She just gives it to you straight and you can either like it or not, she will never steer your wrong.

I only know of one such woman that I feel that connected to in which I can truly trust and that woman is my mother. I’ve never met another female outside of close relatives with whom I felt really has my best interest at heart. Iyanla is the real deal! Oh yes, mark my words, she is about, not only herself, but she’s all about you! She wants to see you succeed as a human being. She wants you to win, and that’s what her thought therapy is all about. There are many things she talks about that I already do, as far as meditation goes, but I need to kick up my game a notch and she’s given me the tools to add to my daily regimen.

I’m truly convinced there isn’t a soul she cannot mend. I seriously believe that. If she can’t help get you on the right path it’s only because ‘you’ didn’t try. This woman has dealt with some of the toughest souls ever, and if she can’t break through and get people to see why their lives are in the state they’re in, that’s a soul that can’t be fixed. Iyanla is that good! I’m amazed at her work and how well she interacts with people. I’m in awe of her sincerity and generosity to help others. You don’t find many people like that nowadays. It is my hope and prayer that I get to meet her in person and advise how much she’s helped my life. I’ve learned a great many things from watching her and now having read her latest installment, I’m a better woman and person. Thank you , Iyanla, for always keeping it one hundred and for sniffing out the bullshit people try to throw your way. She ain’t having none of that! What an awesome book and an even more amazing beautiful spirit. We need more Iyanlas in the world!

If you haven’t read, I urge you to get this book and start your thought therapy today! I know I am!

[Namir · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book was F-A-N-T-A-S-T-I-C!!!!!! I mean...seriously!!! This really taught me the power of having a sound mind and how to control my thought-life. It really helps you break-down negative thought patterns at the root and restructure your thinking through practical exercises and affirmations. It truly helped me to work through my anxiety and nervousness. There are 42 different dominant negative thought patterns that we all wrestle with or have at some point in our lives and helps you to work through them and around them. It truly helps you to get your head on straight and refocus through the 4 A lenses of Awareness, Acknowledgement, Acceptance, and Action. I'm still using these methods today to process things and help others to do the same.

DEFINITELY RECOMMEND TO THE PERSON WHO NEEDS HELP TRYING TO GET CONTROL OVER THEIR MIND AND THOUGHT-LIFE IN ADDITION TO "THE I-FACTOR" BY BISHOP VAN MOODY!!!

Great read, practical examples, exercises, real-life stories, and everything in a typical Iyanla fashion.

[Marva · Rating 4 out of 5]

What an amazing gift! I borrowed this from the library, but this is a book I need to hold in my hands and refer back to again and again. Iyanla introduces tools that teach how to identify dominant negative thought patterns (DNTPs) and guidance on how to change them. Iyanla’s writing is clear and no nonsense; the tools are hers, but the work belongs to those who choose to do it.

[April · Rating 5 out of 5]

Another powerful book from Iyanla. I found myself crying as I read through some of the prayers because I need healing in those areas. The words resonated with me so hard. And this work is hard. I've found myself being resistant to doing the work. I've had this book for a month now and I've read it through--finished reading it over a week ago--but I haven't sat down and diligently done the exercises--or even gotten to putting my notes onto goodreads until today. Resistance. It's strong. And it's scary to know that I could change my life in such a powerful way. I think the resistance is coming from fear. And even though I know this, I still haven't started. Maybe tomorrow. I've been saying "maybe tomorrow" for the past two weeks. But I think it will actually be tomorrow that I start. And I will need to get my own copy of this book, instead of just a library copy, because I want to have the prayers and exercise process on hand in the months to come.

"You know that anything that 'cannot stand the heavenly heat' of this light 'is to be cast aside swiftly by conscious choice.' This light is your soul's light. The choice is yours to make." pg. 1

"For the purpose of the healing work that will be offered as the Get Over It! process, I am defining suffering in the following way: 'voluntary participation in situations and circumstances that diminish one's capacity and potential to thrive or flourish as a function of a belief that one is powerless to do anything else.'" pg. 2

"No matter how much we would like to blame our suffering on people and circumstances seemingly beyond our control, the bottom line is staggeringly simple: Anything and everything we experience is a function of what and how we think. How we think determines our feelings and behavior. How we behave determines the nature and quality of our lives. This also means that any emotional investment (i.e., feelings) that are attached to a particular thought pattern will resurface each time the pattern is engaged or entertained. To neutralize and eventually eliminate an unconscious, unproductive pattern of thought and the associated feelings, a steady stream of new thoughts must be introduced." pg. 4

"I have come to understand that when individuals are suffering through unpleasant or undesirable situations and circumstances, they are often unaware  of how they participate in creating or re-creating their experience. In severe cases, when there is an addiction to suffering--meaning that the individuals have accepted their experiences as normal and expect them to remain as they are--there is often a flat-out refusal to acknowledge or accept We are what we think as the truth. It is a matter of accepting responsibility for the state and condition of our mind. For some reason, average human beings will resist this premise and the responsibilities associated with it. I, too, have been in that place--resisting, dismissing, and flat-out rejecting the notion that I had the power to change the circumstances of my life with a thought. Regardless of how it was presented to me, I felt as if I was being blamed for my own suffering. It was not until my repeated attempts to 'fix' my life had failed that I became ruthlessly committed to having dominion over the circumstances of my life. Only then could I hear, comprehend, and accept how my thoughts, feelings, and patterns of behavior determined my ability to survive, and then thrive. It was not an easy task to undertake or a simple shift to make; however, my desire to be a better example and to create a better life for my children kept me on the path." pg. 5

"This interplay of thinking one thing, feeling something else, and doing a third thing--all while believing that you will never get what you want--is what makes suffering seem normal and acceptable to many folks." pg. 12

"When the mind is consciously or unconsciously focused on traumatic experiences, unpleasant memories, and a long list of the things you 'do not' want to experience, the energy of these thoughts becomes dominant in your mind and takes over as the basis of the mental attitude that governs your expectations. In life, you do not experience what you ask for; you experience what you expect. The expectations we hold are the fruits of the subconscious mind." pg. 27

"'I give meaning to everything I see' is a lesson from A Course in Miracles. It can be translated to mean the following: 'I see it because I recognize it. I recognize it because I believe I am it. Because I believe I am it, the ego demands that I hide it and make it all about you.' Making your life conditions and experience about something or someone other than yourself 'trumps' the truth that thoughts, not people, create the intimate and personal conditions of your life." pg. 48

"Our behaviors and choices are our contributions to our experiences. Regardless of what we may say we need, want, or desire at any given moment, what shows up in our lives as our experience is what we think and feel about those things. Until we become aware of and acknowledge our contributions, we will blame, feel victimized, and cling to powerlessness. Acknowledgment is a declaration of our unconscious dominant negative thought patterns that are hidden beneath the surface and must ultimately be accepted to be healed." pg. 51-52

"Acceptance does not mean agreement, nor does it mean we feel good about what we're facing. It does, however, mean that we're willing to look for and embrace the lesson. It also indicates a willingness to grow through the experience by understanding something 'bigger,' which we may not recognize just yet, is unfolding for our benefit." pg. 53

"Remember, thinking one thing, feeling something else, and behaving in a manner that is incongruent with what you think and what you feel is the stuff that makes suffering normal." pg. 55

"Scientific research has confirmed that a woman's nutritional condition, psychological states, and emotional propensities do in fact influence the predispositions of the children she gives birth to. Such susceptibilities often manifest as low self-esteem, a diminished state of self-value, and a lack of self-worth later in life." pg. 71

"Sometimes it's best for a person to work with a therapist, in order to unpack the past; other times it's better to work with a coach, in order to design and create a productive future." pg. 84

"The key word in all of this is 'choice.' We all have to navigate the psychological and emotional pathology we inherit from our parents and environment; however, nothing we experience eliminates our free will and our ability to choose how to respond. As we grow and mature, there comes a moment when we must examine the choices we make and the consequences of those choices. These alone are our responsibility." pg. 86-87

"Repetition is the mother of all skill, and what we focus on grows. When we're not aware of what we're thinking, we're very likely to repeat to ourselves the same dominant negative thoughts until we master them. May people do exactly this. They master these thoughts be believing them, even when they're not true: You're so stupid! You never do anything right! You can't do that!." pg. 100

"Every negative belief about ourselves or every uncertainty about our ability to do something carries an energy that will open a DNTP file--a fear file, a guilt file, a why-bother file. Thoughts and beliefs feed expectations: 'I'll never do it! I can't . . . It doesn't matter anyway.' These thoughts are more often than not attached to outcomes we expect, whether or not our expectations are supported by reality. So very often we master thoughts, beliefs, and expectations about the very things we don't want because of the silent, terrifying, unconscious thoughts that we repeat in our mind." pg. 101

"One of the most perfect forms of prayer proven to yield miraculous results is affirmative prayer. This form of spiritual petition focuses on a desired and positive outcome rather than a problem or negative situation. By affirming the desired intention as if it's already happened, affirmative prayer teaches us to program the mind about what to expect. Remember, expectations are beliefs that determine what we experience, and we always get what we expect." 103

"Affirmations are a method of preparing your mind for success; an unprepared mind cannot entertain, experience, or receive success. An affirmation is a statement you make to impress a desired idea onto your consciousness and within the energy of your environment. It is a suggestion that you make to yourself that increases and expands your beliefs and expectations. A suggestion is an idea or plan generally proposed by another person to gain your acceptance and supportive action. Commercial ads are a form of suggestion. Think of an affirmation as an ad for a desired experience that you run in your brain. In this way, an affirmation becomes more than positive self-talk. It becomes a powerful declaration that inspires or motivates acceptance and action." pg. 107

"Rather than offer a lengthy explanation of how and why affirmations work, I'll share with you an affirmation I was taught about the process and power of affirmation:All thoughts are creative.When I think positively, I create powerfully.My thoughts are affirmations that support the creation of the reality I desire.My affirmations are the words I speak to powerfully infuse my thoughts.I repeat my affirmations with emotional commitment, intensity, certainty, and faith.My affirmations consistently support me as I tap into the unlimited power of my subconscious mind.Every affirmation I speak has a powerful and positive influence on my mind throughout the day.My affirmations create new habits that will propel me, with grace and ease, toward all that I desire.I feed faith and strength into every fiber of my being by using my affirmations consistently and with commitment.I affirm my good, and I see it come to life." pg. 109

"Correct and conscious breathing is one of the best and easiest ways of building a healthy mind and body. When we breathe consciously, we invoke a relaxation response that is healing, energizing, and cleansing. . . By breathing consciously, we release stress as well as all of the mental and physical issues associated with the experience of being stressed. Conscious breath work is powerful because it oxygenates the brain and body cells, allowing us to function in a clearer mental and emotional state. It increases circulation to the lymph glands, removing toxins and debris and thereby releasing negative energy." pg. 111

"The thymus gland is located in the emotional energy center of the body--behind the sternum, or breastbone--near the heart. In fact, it has been referred to as the 'heart's protector.' The thymus gland is energetically responsible for regulating the flow of energy throughout the entire body, it's affected most by emotions related to feeling unsafe, attacked, and unprotected--those emotions that accompany most dominant negative thought patterns. Because the thymus is so powerful and connected to the rest of the body's energy system, almost any emotional or energetic blockage or imbalance can be affected by working with the thymus gland. The thymus thump is a method of gently tapping on the thymus gland to create vibrations that stimulate energy within the body." pg. 118-119

"Being in a relationship with someone is an important aspect of life. We want to share all of who we are, and we want to know that who we are matters to our beloved. I don't choose to be 'just another' person in the life of my beloved. I want to feel and be connected at the soul level. That feeling will be reflected by how he looks at me, what he sees for me, and how I feel when I look at him. Fourteen years is a long time, and during that time, things can become dull, worn out, and taken for granted. My partner was and is a beautiful man, but when I looked into his eyes, it was clear to me that the thrill was gone. . . and so was he. He didn't agree and was willing to convince me otherwise. But I have learned over the years never to allow what someone else says and does to determine how and what I feel." pg. 120

"As you do the GOI work, the intention is to decrease the DNTP intensity level until you feel a shift in your mind and the intensity level you experience drops to 0. This shift will also be demonstrated by how you respond to and address both new and familiar situations in your life. Chances are you'll discover some things that once set you off no longer do; other things you never considered possible for yourself will present you with no difficulties. The more consistently you practice the GOI work, the better you will get at it. The better you get at doing the work, the easier it will become to make better choices and decisions every day. This is how you can confirm that old files are being emptied and new files are being created." pg. 137

"Your soul, a.k.a. your authentic self knows what is true, whether or not you consciously know it or believe it. Affirmative prayers tap into the divine essence of your being and ignite the truth that is buried beneath all the lures and traps of the ego and your physical senses." pg 137

"Don't make this process more difficult than it needs to be. Follow the steps: become aware of the dominant negative thought pattern or feeling; acknowledge the feelings that get triggered; set an intention to be healed of the trigger; accept the intensity level of the pattern; and act---'do your work' until the DNTP's intensity level is reduced to 0. And always support your daily prayer and affirmation practices with the energy-clearing tools." pg. 141

"The human brain's negativity bias, which wires us to give more attention to the negative than to the positive, means feeling bad can become so familiar that it almost feels good. Why people seem to be more content to complain and suffer than to consciously or consistently do what is required to improve themselves and their lives is a conundrum. Holding on to whatever or whoever is the source of our pain or distress is apparently much more comfortable than the effort required to get over it." pg. 299-300

"At the end of the day, the only thing that has put many of us on the healing path was the final awareness that if we didn't change, nothing else would change." pg. 335

It got very repetitive at times (which perhaps was by design given that this is literally a book about training our minds for the better) but there’s definitely some good information in here regarding conquering our negative thoughts patterns.

I can’t say enough good things about this book. It is sooo inspiring to me and full of the author’s wisdom and knowledge. I love that it is a practical guide too. It touched me on so many levels, and it went very deep. I could relate and transform aspects of my life that I had tried to before but never had the right tools. I want to recommend it very highly.

[Khamis Kay · Rating 5 out of 5]

I enjoyed this book and loved listening to some of it through audible which is read by Iyanla herself. This book clearly outlines how our thinking stops us from moving forward, healing and actually manifests in the problematic and negative experiences we go through. Iyanla lays out many solutions that are to be used together in order to combat our habitual negative thoughts. I love the prayers and affirmations she give to neutralise heal and eliminate many underlying disorders we all experience, she gives us 42 which is anything from depression, hopelessness, anger, abandonment issues, grief etc.

This book is awesome but it is about putting into practise the things she gives us to heal ourselves. The proof will be evident in the practice, so please practise the many tools she so clearly teaches us. I pray we are all healed through this book. Amen

[Allen · Rating 5 out of 5]

As usual, Iyanla's writing is clear and easy to relate with. Her ideas are always simple and straightforward and always strike a feeling of being right.

We all have baggage, some of it was acquired before we were born and some of it we collected as we grew up. But most of us aren't aware of it; we have a feeling that we're carrying something but we have no idea what is inside. In her latest book, Iyanla shows how to look at this baggage and gives simple, yet effective ways to sort through it and decide what we should keep and what we can discard.

[Viviana Bravo · Rating 4 out of 5]

In her book, Iyanla Vanzant describes the way to use your mind to heal your issues and past to lead to a successful future. She gives examples of people that have completed her process and really motivates various strategies on how to do this that'll work for you. I have yet to try it, but I'm willing although it does seem like a lot of work/memorization. But her thought therapy can help, apparently, within two weeks. I recommend everyone at least try it because as she says, you've got nothing to lose.

[Kathleen Black · Rating 4 out of 5]

I was surprised by the amount of research and information this book contained. I expected more of a focus on encouragement, which it had, but it had really useful explanations on the working of the mind. And Iyanla shared the academic/scientific stuff in such concrete and memorable ways. The chapters are brimming with very useful tools for breaking negative life patterns and creating powerful ones as replacements. I listened to this on Audible, narrated by the author. Her voice is a gift and I loved listening to her. A great read and listening was a wise use of time.

Get Over It! I love Iyanla because she is different. I have several of her books/audiobooks. I listened to this. Goodreads does not have the option for me to chose audiobook yet. I have the hardcover too. A good reference book. I could listen to Iyanla for hours and watch her videos. And her technique is amazing. This is a book for healing the hard stuff and the small stuff and anything in between. Highly recommend.

I've long appreciated the work of Vanzant, so I knew I wanted to check this out. Her help with working through negative thoughts and thought patterns helped me to rethink issues of my own and how I might move to be more authentic and reframe my own incorrect thinking. You don't have to have a certain faith for this, rather, she guides you in how best to seek help in correcting your negative self talk.

Guidance and Prayers to a fulfilling life

After reading this book I believe you can discover your negative thought pattern and how to move forward to healing. Whether you learned as a child to mimic adults and never discovered your values and voice or life has taken a toll there is a prayer and guidance activity process to heal and eliminate negative thoughts. It is an enlightening book to read and I believe a person will enjoy it.

[Maimuna Islam · Rating 5 out of 5]

Practical, clear, eye opening

The book presents ideas about trauma and suffering and then follows them up with practical methods to cope and move past that trauma. It's easy to follow, very real, and has the potential to change your life. In person counseling and medication is not accessible or helpful for everyone. This book offers another method of coping.

[Rosa · Rating 4 out of 5]

I had my "ah ha" moment while reading this book. This is literally what I've been looking for, the actual tools on how to "get over it".

The book could have done without the lack luster testimonials. I'm sure they were added in to help motivate the skeptic but that type of person wouldn't have picked up this book.

[Sherique Dill · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book is a great book written by Iyanla. It helped me to see how our thoughts shape our reality. It explains how denominative thoughts can be destructive, and it gives a lot of different prayers for different issues. For example, there are prayers there for anxiety, stress, depression, loneliness, self-doubt, and much more. A great read. I treasure this book. It is very therapeutic.

[Jo Ann Rhodehouse · Rating 4 out of 5]

I have loved Iyanla since we started watching her Fix My Life series. Her no nonsense, and what some might think are a little unorthodox methods always hit the nail on the head and can stir up things that I need to fix. I returned this book to the library and listened on Audible, some sections several times. I think I prefer her Word of the Day on Instagram - she’s the best!

iyanla does a good job at taking a bit of CBT and a bit of spiritual therapy and mashing them together to create a practical, useful, supportive program to help us understand how to neutralize, heal, and move past trauma and negative thought patterns. a good book.
