Contact and social links below: https://mindsetchangeuk.com/useful-links KEY TAKEAWAYS Toxic positivity is using positivity as a way to mask or avoid negative emotions and situations. Positivity can be used in a toxic way when it prevents us from addressing core issues and emotions. Spiritual bypassing is another form of toxic positivity, where people use spiritual practices to avoid dealing with difficult emotions and situations.

"Your truth is important to get to. Focus on the themes."

How Do You Stop Thinking Negative Thoughts?

Does it feel like your mind is driving you mad? Paul explores the phenomenon of negative thoughts and how they can unexpectedly intrude on our minds, triggering a cascade of negative emotions and behaviours. He shares personal anecdotes and insights into the nature of these thoughts, emphasising that they are not inherently negative but rather a product of our perception and relationship with them.

Join the Mindset Change Another Level channel below:patreon.com/mindsetchange Mindset Change WhatsApp Community Link. Contact and social links below: https://mindsetchangeuk.com/useful-links KEY TAKEAWAYS Negative thoughts are a normal part of the mind's conditioning and can trigger negative emotions and behaviors. The mind is often seeking conflict and problems, which can lead to a negative story loop. Thoughts are not inherently negative; it is our perception and relationship to them that determines their impact. Trying to suppress or eliminate negative thoughts can actually make them more persistent. By accepting and observing thoughts without judgment, we can reduce their importance and focus on more important aspects of our lives. BEST MOMENTS "If you're worried about this ever happening, understandable but it also means that you're not likely to let this happen. It goes against your values which are being used against you." "The thoughts that appear inside your mind are just thoughts. They will just come and go. Nothing is permanent. That is the beauty of impermanence." "You're going to have [negative thoughts] for the rest of your life. So why not change your relationship with them? Why not just let them be there?" "They're protective lies of course but they are still lies nonetheless."

Join the Mindset Change Another Level channel below:patreon.com/mindsetchange Mindset Change WhatsApp Community Link. Contact and social links below: https://mindsetchangeuk.com/useful-links KEY TAKEAWAYS Intermittent fasting involves extending the period of time when you're not eating, and it can be a lifestyle approach to improve health and lose weight. Fasting has various health benefits, including lowering inflammation, promoting autophagy (the body's recycling and upcycling system), and improving metabolic flexibility. Clean fasting refers to avoiding anything that can raise insulin levels during the fasting period, such as sweeteners, creamers, and protein sources. During the fasting period, you can have plain water and black coffee, as the bitter flavour profile of coffee does not trigger an insulin response. Intermittent fasting can lead to changes in taste preferences and a shift towards healthier food choices over time. BEST MOMENTS "Fasting is anti-inflammatory. It lowers that state to the level that is healthy instead of that unhealthy high level." "Your body is not going to flip the metabolic switch to burning your own fat if it has other fuel sources coming in." "You're going to feel so much better without it. And you just hold your nose and drink it black until suddenly you no longer have to hold your nose." "Real food is always going to be better for your body. The higher quality our food, the better."

If your child is anxious, you need to listen to this. Paul is joined by Dr. Eli Lebowitz to discuss anxiety in children and how parents can support their anxious children. Dr. Lebowitz, a psychologist and professor at the Yale Child Study Center, shares his expertise on child anxiety and the impact of family dynamics on anxiety disorders.

Join the Mindset Change Another Level channel below:patreon.com/mindsetchange Mindset Change WhatsApp Community Link. Contact and social links below: https://mindsetchangeuk.com/useful-links KEY TAKEAWAYS Parents should not blame themselves for their child's anxiety. There is no evidence to suggest that parents are the cause of anxiety disorders in children. It is important for parents to adopt a supportive stance towards their child's anxiety. This involves acknowledging their anxiety and expressing confidence in their ability to cope with it. Accommodation of anxiety, such as reassurance-seeking or avoidance behaviours, should be reduced. Accommodation can inadvertently reinforce the belief that the child cannot handle anxiety, leading to more anxiety in the long run. It is important to seek professional evaluation to determine if physical symptoms, such as nausea, are anxiety-related or have another underlying cause. BEST MOMENTS "Our field, like mental health, we brought this on ourselves, this whole guilt issue. We really did." "Teaching your child that it's okay to be anxious some of the time and that they can handle that, that's the biggest gift you can give an anxious child." "The most important lesson for a child who has anxiety to learn is actually, I can be anxious, and it'll pass, and it's okay, and it's not the end of the world." "The truth of the matter is that who you are as a parent is really unlikely to have a big impact on whether or not your child has an anxiety disorder."
