During this time of COVID are you finding yourself irritable, blaming, focusing on the negative? When we are feeling mildly depressed, our minds are subject to cognitive distortions like magical thinking, catastrophizing, black and white thinking etc. These "distortions" can lead to an uptick in compulsive and addictive behaviors.
Being aware of these "distortions" can help you to realize that you need to spend time doing self care practices. Tune in to this weeks show as Kevin and Niseema explore the many ways our thoughts can be distorted.
