Disobeying Unhelpful Thoughts
In your Disobeying your Unhelpful Thoughts Journal, provided in your onboarding materials, write down an unhelpful thought you’d like to disobey today. Write out what values you’ll be honoring when you disobey it. At the end of the day, mark if you completed it. If it’s hard to think about what values you’ll be honoring, that’s okay. Just focus on disobeying the thought and notice what that’s like for you after you’ve done it. If it’s hard to choose a thought, that’s okay too. Just commit to doing this once a day and you can log it in your journal after you’ve disobeyed it.
Training the mind
Honoring your values can help you live the way you want to, even when you’re having pain or fatigue. Your values can also support you in continuing to practice the skills you’ve learned in this program.
