We are overwhelmed right now. With all that is going on, we need to take control of our thoughts now more than ever. As a cognitive behavioral coach, I am so excited to help you learn how to do this!
A few questions:
Do you often find yourself trapped in anxious, negative, and unproductive thinking?
Do you lose valuable time, focus, and energy because of overthinking and worry?
Do you ever feel frustrated and confused about how to stop negative and compulsive thinking?
Have you experienced times of high stress, agitation, anxiety, and even depression as a result of mental overwhelm?
Do you feel so busy, overwhelmed, and stressed that you’ve lost touch with who you really are?
Do you simply desire a more centered, calm, and peaceful life?
I want to help you to learn to manage and understand your thoughts AND change your priorities so they don’t rule your life.
If you desire to have a simplified, calm mental life—and to reclaim some of the time and emotional energy you give up to overthinking and anxiety—then you’ve come to the right place.
You can change your thoughts and have more “space” in your mind to enjoy inner peace and happiness. Training your mind is the mental equivalent of tidying your house. It’s a habit you must repeat daily in order to stay on top of it.
You can have the clarity to prioritize what’s most important in your life, what no longer serves your goals, and how you want to live on a daily basis.
Causes of Mental Clutter
1. Daily Stress - Daily Overload.
2. Too Many Things - Everything seems important and urgent. Where in your life do you feel driven by a nervous, frantic energy?
3. Negativity Bias - We have negativity bias in our brains. our tendency to react to negative stimuli more intensely than positive. Negative stimuli produce more neural activity than do equally intense (e.g., loud, bright) positive ones. They are also perceived more easily and quickly. Hanson says, “The brain is like Velcro for negative experiences but Teflon for positive ones.” are hardwired to overthink, worry, and view situations more negatively than they are in reality. You see threats as more threatening and challenges as more. Any negative thought that enters your mind feels real, so there is an impulse to accept it as reality.
