Rewiring Your Mind: David Hain on Overcoming Negative Thought Patterns

Stinking thinking is like a flat tire in our brain. We can't go anywhere until we change it, and the results of stinking thinking affect our emotions and our physical well-being.
Ever feel like your own thoughts are sabotaging your recovery journey? In this eye-opening episode of 'A2D - From Addict to Disciple', David Hain tackles the concept of 'stinking thinking'—those pesky negative thought patterns that can derail your progress and make sobriety seem out of reach. Hain likens these thoughts to a flat tire in our brain, keeping us stuck and unable to move forward.
But don’t worry, he’s got some practical advice to help you change those thoughts and steer your life in a more positive direction. Hain introduces the power of mindfulness as a tool to combat stinking thinking. Mindfulness, he explains, is all about being present and aware of your thoughts without judgment. It's like giving your mind a much-needed tune-up. He shares actionable tips, such as starting a journal to track negative thoughts and setting goals for positive thinking.
Imagine turning those 'I can't' moments into 'I can' victories. But it’s not just about what's going on in your head. Hain emphasizes the importance of surrounding yourself with positive influences—people who lift you up and fill your life with gratitude. He wraps up the episode with two inspirational quotes that serve as daily reminders to stay on track.
If you're struggling with addiction or know someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights and practical tools to help you break free from negative thought patterns and build a healthier, more positive mindset.
