Edward Bourne PhD. Anxiety specialist:
*
*
“It is so automatic and subtle
*
*
you don’t notice it or
*
*
the effect it has on
*
*
your moods and feelings.
*
*
It appears in telegraphic form-
*
*
one short word or image
*
*
*
(”Oh no!)
*
*
*
contains a whole series of thoughts,
*
*
memories, or associations.
*
*
*
Anxious self-talk is typically irrational but almost always sounds like the truth.
*
*
Negative self-talk perpetuates avoidance.
*
*
Self-talk can initiate or aggravate a panic attack.”
*
*
*
*
my two cents
*
Mindfulness searches the inner world to integrate this subconscious draw, this negative self talk in due time.
*
*
Sit today and self talk will be laden with opportunity and optimism.
