Thank you for listening to the Conflict Skills Podcast.
This podcast is free Conflict Resolution training, to help you develop confidence and tools for dealing with conflict.
In this episode I talk about rumination - the kind of recurring, intrusive thoughts that are often triggered as a result of conflict. This kind of issue can create a negative spiral and if you've ever experienced obsessing about conflict, you know that it can be very unpleasant, exhausting and make it difficult to concentrate and relax.
I explain why we ruminate, including our brains focus on keeping us safe from potential threats. I also outline a number of tools that we can use strategically to help reduce the amount of intrusive thoughts we are having and also minimise the negative impact at the time.
If you have a question or would be willing to provide feedback please email podcast@simongoode.com.
Thanks for listening and I hope the episode is helpful for you.
