The Nurture SeriesHow To HealSeason 3 Ep 9: How do we heal? Observe your thoughts. Then think about better ones. I've compiled a list of exercises to take the guess work on how to craft different thoughts. The goal is to practice this list. In other words, not to focus on "GETTING IT RIGHT," but to just repeat, start, stop, and repeat. The more repetitive you become with these hacks, the more awareness around how you think will become second nature. Because thinking good thoughts is at the root to all healing.
