## Resource

Have you found it difficult to change your thoughts or beliefs simply by trying to “think” differently? Cognitive approaches, like mindset work or talk therapy, can have many benefits, but they often fail to address what’s actually happening in your nervous system. In this episode, Sarah discusses the origin of limiting beliefs, why we can’t just force ourselves to be positive, and the steps necessary to shift our thoughts.
