The Mental Trick That Stops Anxiety Fast

The Mental Trick That Stops Anxiety Fast

Whenever you feel sad or mad or nervous or out of control, write down what you’re thinking and then ask yourself, is it true? Is it absolutely true? How do I feel when I have this thought? How do I act when I have this thought? And what’s the outcome of the thought? Then my favorite part of it is take the original thought and then turn it to the opposite. And then just ask yourself whether or not that’s true. And by directing my thoughts, by managing. So rather than being a victim, so many of my patients are victims of their thoughts until they do the work. Write down a hundred of your worst thoughts. Take them through that process and by the time you get to 30, they’ll stop bothering

Your brain creates thoughts — but that doesn’t mean they’re true.
Dr. Daniel Amen explains a simple but powerful exercise: write down your negative thoughts, question them, and turn them around.

This process helps you stop being a victim of your mind and take back control of your emotions, actions, and life.
Most people believe everything they think… but you don’t have to.
