Dealing With Negative Thoughts: Understanding Your Inner Dialogue

Welcome to this enlightening episode of Words With Myself, where we delve into the unsettling world of intrusive thoughts. Do you feel like you're in control of your thoughts? Discover the truth behind why we don't choose the thoughts that enter our minds and how attaching emotions to these thoughts can affect our sense of self.

Explore the nature of thoughts that disturb us—those that might seem out of character or shocking. We often bury these thoughts, fearing judgment and self-condemnation, which only gives them more power in our shadows.

Learn how to shine a light on these hidden parts of ourselves, acknowledging the needs they represent. By understanding that these thoughts are not an indication of our identity but rather an expression of unmet needs, we can begin to heal and empower ourselves to make conscious choices about which thoughts deserve our attention.
