Dr. Kim Lannon talks about dealing with a negative mindset, something almost all of us deal with to at least some degree whether we are just stressed a little by certain people or circumstances or we see a big hungry bear in the back of every cave in our lives. Dealing with a negative mindset and the anxiety it produces is a matter of awareness of what makes us feel that way and why. That, in turn, allows us to see if our negative thoughts are reasonable and rational, or even if they are real.
