How to change your attitude towards intrusive thoughts
Accept Your Emotions
Allow yourself to feel your feelings, so you don’t spend more energy avoiding them than you would on feeling them. This way you can focus on the situation, fully experience the feelings and maybe better understand why it hurts and what to do about it.
Research also indicates that writing about negative emotions made people less depressed and more positive about life than before they started writing.

Live in the present without hyper-focusing on the future or the past.

Be Introspective
Avoid coasting through life by asking yourself if you are in denial about or resisting something in your life.
Step back and consider where your thoughts, feelings and behaviors are coming from. Always ask yourself if it is helpful, necessary or if there isn’t a better option.

Keep Tabs On Your Thoughts.
Beware of your thoughts, else you may fall in a vicious cycle of negative thoughts, which seem to sprout naturally. Not only do these thoughts sink our mood but we also start to see them as truths.
Monitor, challenge and replace negative thoughts to work through them and see they are untrue and changeable.

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
