Episode Synopsis


We can’t control our thoughts, no matter how hard we try. Our emotions, thoughts, and behaviors are all linked together. Sometimes we’ll have an emotion, which creates a thought, or a thought that creates an emotion. From that, we’ll then decide to take action on it.    When we consistently have negative thoughts, we can fall into these negative thought loops that make it hard for us to get out of. Yes, our emotional or mental health does take a hit, but our physical health will eventually take a hit also. When we’re stuck in the negative thought cycles or our negative thought loops, we can create a lot of unwanted anxiety and lose sight of our own capabilities.    What’s the key to overcoming these negative thoughts when they’re passing by you? Give yourself some space to recognize them and ask questions about them. Acknowledge that they’re there and get curious with why they’re popping up at that moment. Then, come up with a strategy to help you move away from that negative thought. Ask yourself whether that thought is true or if it’s just ‘worse case scenario’.  Continue Your Growth Journey: Kaminiwood.com
