Instead of using logic to change your thoughts, it asks you to increase your flexibility and to leave your poor little thoughts alone, even make room for them, embrace them, kiss them every now and again.
Ever feel like your mind is a battlefield of negative thoughts? Dr. Christian Heim has some refreshing advice in this episode of his podcast. Instead of wrestling with those pesky thoughts, why not let them be? It might sound counterintuitive, but Dr. Heim delves into acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) to show you how it’s done. Imagine those negative thoughts as sulking in a corner while you get on with living your best life. Easier said than done, right?
But Dr. Heim breaks it down with practical tips that make it seem possible. He talks about separating yourself from your thoughts, valuing what truly matters to you, and committing to actions that align with your values. It’s about noticing your thoughts without letting them rule you. This episode is a blend of science, compassion, and a sprinkle of humor, making it not just informative but also engaging.
If you’re someone who struggles with mental clutter or knows someone who does, this episode is like a gentle guide through the maze of your mind. You’ll walk away with tools to acknowledge your thoughts without giving them power, disbelieve the negative chatter, and focus on what really matters. It’s a refreshing take on mental health that feels both doable and uplifting.
