Finding Balance: Emotion Mind Meets Logic Mind
Wise mind knows how to help logic mind and emotion mind work together as a team to find a peaceful acceptance.
Ever feel like your emotions are driving the bus while logic is just a backseat passenger? Therapist Sarah, LPC, kicks off her 'Emotion Facts' series by breaking down the concept of Wisemind. In this episode, she explains how Wisemind is the harmonious blend of Emotion Mind and Logic Mind. Emotion Mind is all about feelings and impulses, while Logic Mind focuses on facts and problem-solving.
Sarah dives into how these two states can sometimes clash but also complement each other when balanced correctly. She emphasizes Radical Acceptance, a cornerstone of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), as a way to bridge the gap between these mind states. By practicing mindfulness and compassion, we can create a synergy that helps us make more balanced decisions. If you're looking to understand your emotions better and bring more balance into your life, this episode is a must-listen.
