Description
Human brains do a lot of thinking—to the tune of about 6200 thoughts per day! Most of these are just passing thoughts, but according to researchers, a lot of those that reach our consciousness can be classified as negative thoughts. This week, I’m sharing the science behind the phenomenon that explains this: negativity bias. -because it’s a way of thinking that can affect our health, our well-being, and determine whether we live our lives to the fullest.
I talk about:
Where these kinds of negative thoughts come from
How they affect our health, relationships, and the choices we make—including whether we take big leaps on our dreams!
How to recognize negativity bias in the form of Automatic Negative Thoughts (or ANTS)
And I share how you can transform this thinking so that you can reframe inhibiting, fear-based, unhelpful thought patterns into courageous action in your life.
If you want to live your life more optimistically and effectively, check out this episode.
