While grief stirs up all kinds of emotions, it also brings up a slew of uncomfortable and repetitive thoughts…but what if trying to “fix” those thoughts misses the deeper truth? In this episode, I explore the difference between thoughts and the powerful beliefs that live underneath them. And why therapies like CBT, DBT and ACT often miss the mark. Understanding this distinction between thoughts and beliefs can shift how you approach grief and open the door to true transformation.

Topics Covered:

• Why the common advice to change your thoughts misses the mark.
• The difference between thoughts, thinking and core beliefs
• How exploring beliefs rather than fixing thoughts, can move your grief forward
