020: How We Can Trigger Ourselves - And What To Do About It with Tracy Shawn
What we'll learn today:
Speaker and author Tracy Shawn is a passionate “anxiety warrior,” who writes and speaks about how to pull oneself out of the trenches of stress, anxiety, and worry. Tracy’s award-winning novel, The Grace of Crows, follows the journey of a woman who learns how to overcome debilitating anxiety after reconnecting with a long-lost friend, who has since become homeless. Her educational background includes an M.A. in clinical psychology. Please visit her website: www.tracyshawn.com
Quotes:
"Being aware...what has worked? What hasn't worked?
"...replace a thought with something positive...when we are being triggered...seek for things that make us feel positive..."
"...finding healthy alternative triggers so that every time we have a thought that triggers an emotion like anxious... we replace it with something positive...a thought that will bring about pleasure instead..."
"If [you're] having a really hard time right now...tomorrow it may not be as hard as it is right now..."
"...amplifies the feeling of stress...start taking inventory [of your feelings] before we go to sleep... push your own 'happy trigger buttons' before you go to sleep...
"...an intervention when we're thinking the "what if?"... so that it helps not only throughout the day but also at night...3 seems to be the 'magic number'...the brain remembers things more clearly...in sets of 3..."
24:20 - The power of questions - [new way of thinking] ... "what if there's something I can do about this?..."
"...F.E.A.R...False Evidence Appearing Real..."
