You Are Not Your Thoughts

In this new series, I am going to talk about the fact that you are not your thoughts. Additionally, I am also going to discuss the concept of consciousness. Consciousness may be the single most important concept on your journey to recovery from OCD & Anxiety. Enjoy the show.

This very true. You are not your thoughts, and we shouldn’t act from them. At least for me with OCD, I won’t

This is hard to think this way “you are not your thoughts” but still possible .. dealing with HOCD
When the thoughts are far from who you are and are 100% disturbing bring so much discomfort. It’s hard ..

Do you do online therapy sessions? Or know someone that specializes with ocd thoughts and negative sometimes harm ocd thoughts. No one in my area does this

That we are not our thoughts is a thought
As a matter of fact, you really had to think to come up with this video
Your mind created it
You talk about the " idea" of concioussnes: Ideas are from the mind, don't they?
