  • What causes my brain to think negatively most of the time?

    Hi, That's an excellent question. It has to do with the balance of your left brain, rational mind, and your limbic and right brain, emotional mind. We tend to develop through life experiences and genetic predisposition a default or a set point for where our focus gets fixated. Yours may be fixated more on what could go wrong or what is wrong with you. Your mind may literally not even notice or process the positive. The good news is that we can rewire our brains to think more positively and notice what is going well so there is a more balanced perspective. If you have had any traumatic experiences, especially in childhood, even any separations, abandonment, divorce, a parent with a mental illness or addiction, these experiences would be good to process and clear with a trained trauma/attachment therapist. What you can do on your own is write in a journal every day, 3 things that went well today, that you're grateful for or proud of. Studies show that doing this daily will help your mind more naturally start to notice and take in the positive and change your set point for feeling happier, more optimistic, and more balanced in how you are perceiving things. I hope this was helpful. (Give the journal exercise about 8 weeks to notice the shift) Warm regards, Dr. Mojas READ MORE
