In order to test our thoughts for validity, we need to screen them with three criteria: accuracy, balance and completeness.
Ever catch yourself spiraling into negative thoughts and wonder how to break free? Patrick Martin, a seasoned psychotherapist, is here to guide you through this maze in episode 2 of 'The Mental Health Toolbox Podcast'. Patrick dives into the murky waters of common unhealthy thinking patterns and offers practical advice on how to identify, challenge, and replace them with healthier, more accurate thoughts. He explains the concept of 'chaining', a skill designed to boost your mood by fostering positive thoughts.
Patrick also breaks down the ABCs of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a cornerstone technique for managing mental health. By categorizing harmful thought patterns like catastrophizing, labeling, and mind-reading, he helps you understand the root causes of your negative thinking. Patrick encourages listeners to practice these skills until they become second nature. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to take control of their mental health and improve their quality of life.
