In this episode, Dr. Gina explains why our mindset can be the source of our suffering. She explores a few mindset pitfalls, such as taking things personally, making assumptions, judging and jumping to conclusions. How these cognitive errors can contribute to anxiety, depression or poor self-esteem. She illustrates how we can transform our mindset by first developing the awareness of our thoughts, detaching from them and redirecting our attention using various strategies. We explore how a practice of gratitude reframes our thoughts and how acceptance instead of resistance greatly reduces our suffering.
