How To Change The Way Your Mind Thinks -Psychotherapy Crash Course
0To change how you process life and make decisions can be really hard.
Who wants to change the mind they have been given to function the way it does in the world? The thought of this could even scare you.
In this video, I discuss how to escape cognitive distortions.
"Cognitive distortions are simply ways that our mind convinces us of something that isn't really true. These inaccurate thoughts are usually used to reinforce negative thinking or emotions — telling ourselves things that sound rational and accurate, but really only serve to keep us feeling bad about ourselves." - PsychCentral
"“I have the worst luck in the entire world.“
“I just failed that math test. I’m no good at school, and I might as well quit.“
“She’s late. It’s raining. She has hydroplaned and her car is upside down in a ditch.“
These are all prime examples of cognitive distortions: thought patterns that cause people to view reality in inaccurate — usually negative — ways.
In short, they’re habitual errors in thinking. When you’re experiencing a cognitive distortion, the way you interpret events is usually negatively biased." - Healthline
