So, if you look at what you think, that affects everything. It affects how you feel, it affects how you behave and, as I like to say, it affects the story you make up.
Ever feel like you're stuck in a loop of automatic reactions, especially when dealing with stress or trauma? In this episode of 'Coming Up for Air', hosts Dominique Simone-Levine, Laurie McDougall, and Annie Highwater tackle this exact issue. They dive into how you can shift from a state of drama to one of consciousness by understanding the power of your thoughts. The trio shares their personal journeys, revealing how they learned to recognize and manage their reflexive responses.
They emphasize the importance of therapy, particularly trauma-based therapy, as a tool for processing experiences and gaining control over one's reactions. By examining the thoughts that trigger automatic behaviors, you can start making more deliberate choices. This episode is packed with practical advice and heartfelt stories, making it a must-listen for anyone looking to change their narrative and live more consciously.
Whether you're dealing with a loved one's addiction or your own struggles, the insights shared here offer a roadmap to calmer, more intentional living.
