Mind over mood. Change how you feel and act by changing the way you think. What might be a more helpful way to think about this situation? What would you advise a close friend with the same thought? Are you overestimating the likelihood of something bad happening? You are not alone. It’s totally normal to have automatic thoughts and let emotions drive how we think sometimes but we can train our mind to ensure we respond versus react! By understanding how we think we can then challenge our beliefs and thoughts to form a stronger pathway that leads to a more effective, helpful and realistic outcome
