128 — 5 Ways to Deal with Negative Thoughts So You Can Train Your Brain to Become Mentally Stronger
Manage episode 430796427 series 3475432
You have about 60,000 thoughts every day. But many of those thoughts aren't helpful. Whether you put yourself down, rehash a conversation that happened in the past, or worry about something that could happen in the future, your thoughts affect how you feel and behave.
While you can't control all the thoughts that pop into your head, you can control how you respond to them. In this episode, I share five ways to deal with negative thoughts. These strategies can improve your mental health and help you build mental strength.
Some of the things I share are:
- The types of thoughts you can't control
- The factors that affect the way we think
- How to separate facts from opinions
- The five tools that you can use to deal with unhelpful thoughts
- How responding to your thoughts differently can change your life
