What’s in this Episode?

Our episode today explains the science behind cognitive restructuring—the foundation of rewiring your anxious brain. Thought patterns that are illogical or unhealthy can exacerbate anxiety or stress. Cognitive therapists focus on identifying and changing thoughts that are self-defeating or dysfunctional—especially thoughts that lead to increased levels of anxiety or depression. This approach is known as cognitive restructuring. You can rewire your anxious brain and establish new patterns of responding in the brain. These patterns become stable and lasting, leading to freedom from anxiety.

Our thoughts are not simply a result of neurological and chemical processes in the brain; they are the neurological and chemical processes in the brain. In cognitive restructuring, the thoughts you think are used to rewire your brain.
