We all get them. Those nagging negative thoughts that plague our minds. What is the best way to deal with those negative thoughts? I’ve found the best way to deal with those negative thoughts is to not latch on to them.
What does that actually mean?
That means to not ruminate on them. To not grab hold onto any particular one and hold onto it and dissect it. Let it pass over you and through you. I know that sounds like some bullshit, but with practice, it helps.
What also helps in this process is to do it with music. I pair it with my favorite playlist. The distraction of the music and the conscious effort to keep the negative thoughts from latching on really helps keep from souring my mood.
How about you? What’s the best way you have found to deal with negative thoughts?
