About This Episode
In this episode my guest David Heffernan, the UK’s #1 provider of Anxiety Solutions, takes us on a journey of discovery through his experiences and expertise around the fear of one’s own thoughts and of the unknown.
For many years people have been taught to clear their mind and try and clear all thoughts so they can find peace. It is, in his view, so important to be able to not only acknowledge your thoughts being present but genuinely being OK with them being there – both good and negative thoughts.
We explore why this is, and look at some helpful techniques.
Takeaways:
- Resistance to your thoughts will only make them come back at you louder.
- To fall in love with the not knowing.
- That learning to be ok with your thoughts will change your lives more than they could ever imagine
and so much more.
