In this episode, we delve into one of the most frustrating aspects of OCD: mental compulsions. These incessant internal rituals can feel like an endless loop, leading to increased anxiety and a sense of being stuck. Instead of fighting to control these thoughts, learn how to change your response by embracing acceptance.

We explore the nature of mental compulsions, how they differ from physical ones, and their impact on the OCD cycle. Discover strategies to stay with anxiety without resorting to compulsions, empowering yourself to break free from the cycle and reducing the influence of OCD on your life.

Join us to learn practical tips on reframing your battle with OCD as a challenge and using mindful strategies to manage and lessen the impact of mental compulsions, allowing you to live a life guided by your values rather than dictated by OCD
