Get Out Your Head and Into Your Thoughts Therapeutic Talks With Dr. Bobby L. Armstrong

Today, we're diving into the fascinating world of our minds. Ever felt like your thoughts are running a marathon without your permission? ... Let’s explore how to hop off that thought treadmill and see the world a bit differently."





"Our brain is like a supercomputer, processing thousands of thoughts daily. But sometimes, it gets a bit, let's say, overenthusiastic, especially with negative thoughts.



...It's not about swapping true thoughts for false positivity but finding a more balanced perspective. For instance, if you think, 'I can't do anything right,' let's pause and reframe: 'I make mistakes, but I also have many successes.'"





...You're on a mission to find evidence against those negative thoughts. ... Spoiler: You'll often find that thought isn't as solid as it seemed!"





...Ask yourself, 'Would I say this to my best friend?' If not, why say it to yourself? Other techniques include mindfulness, journaling, and 'Thought Stoppage,' where you tell your mind, 'Stop,' when a negative thought arises.



...Be patient and kind to yourself as you learn to reframe and restructure those thoughts. ... Keep practicing, and you'll be a thought-reframing ninja in no time!"
