When I first meet clients, I encourage them to be fascinated by the way their mind works. An ideal component of a successful therapy is when clients become curious about themselves, which allows them to gain insight into their problems. I personally believe, based on my research and experience, that what the human mind concentrates on has an influence on what happens in one's life. By watching the patterns of our thoughts we can modify and redirect them, with the goal of making healthier and more life-affirming decisions. The human mind has evolved to focus on problems and to anticipate more of them in the future.
These tendencies render us helpless to the incessant pounding of our minds. People seek relief from this in all sorts of ways, some not so great. I teach them psychological tools that give them more dominion over their own minds. In addition, I encourage clients to take total responsibility for their reactions to life situations.
This can be very difficult for people to accept since we are conditioned to think that other people are responsible for our reactions. Once we understand that we're in control, we can choose to stop participating in painful reactions, even if we are totally right about the blame in a situation. This helps us achieve a greater degree of freedom in our lives.
