REPLACING…..

Everything we do begins with a thought. Thought replacement is a series of techniques that help you replace negative thoughts with positive ones. Examples include, saying to yourself, STOP!; clapping your hands or snapping your fingers when a negative thought enters (literally, snapping out of of it); and/or putting a star or checkmark on a sheet of paper each time you have a negative thought. The idea is to take note of the frequency of your negative thoughts so that you can steer away from them. Come back tomorrow for more ideas on replacing.
