This episode of The Peaceful Home Podcast delves into the intricate web of thoughts, emotions, and parenting. We'll explore how six common cognitive distortions can inadvertently sabotage your parenting efforts and discuss strategies for fostering a more adaptive mindset. Join us as we uncover these distortions and their impact on your interactions with your teens and tweens.
We dive into 6 Types of Cognitive Distortions that are creating problems in parenting and how these might look in your day-to-day life, as well as the impact of your thoughts and mindset on your parenting journey.
Cognitive Distortions:
1. All-or-nothing thinking
2. Mental Filter
3. Overgeneralization
4. Discounting the Positive
5. Catastrophizing
6. Personalizing
We explore how these might look in your day-to-day life and help you understand how cognitive distortions can directly impact your emotional state and, in turn, influence your reactions and interactions with your children. And explore the path to make the internal shift, so you can guide your adolescent as they grow!
