153. When Positive Thinking Isn’t Appropriate

Most of us spend our time thinking things on default, without questioning whether they are true or useful. Thought work isn’t about just jumping to unicorns and rainbows, and everything being perfect. It serves to help us explore and question our thoughts and feel all of our emotions - even the ‘negative’ ones. We don’t have to succumb to pressure to think positively all the time, and this week, I’m showing you why.   Join me as I revisit an episode on the topic of positivity pressure and share my general thoughts on positivity and feeling our emotions. Discover the importance of thought work and why it doesn’t involve skipping to a happy place, what to do when positive thinking isn’t appropriate, and how to give yourself the gift of allowing your feelings to be there without judgement.   Get full show notes and more information here: https://www.maisiehill.com/153
