235 // The Best-Case Scenario Method

The Mindful Kind - A podcast by Rachael Kable

Hello and welcome to episode 235 of The Mindful Kind podcast. In this episode, I've shared The Best-Case Scenario Method, which is all about cultivating more hope and positivity.  Here are the steps for implementing The Best-Case Scenario yourself:  Notice when a challenge or problem arises in your life Observe non-judgementally if your mind starts to focus on negative thoughts Ask yourself, "What is the best-case scenario?" and spend some time imagining it Ask yourself, "What is one thing I can start doing today to move closer to the best-case scenario?" (And then do it!) The resources mentioned in this episode include: - The VIA Character Strengths Test: https://www.viacharacter.org/ - 2020 study about hope - My Medium article about catastrophizing  - Episode 203 of The Mindful Kind: Self-Fulfilling Prophecies - My website: www.rachaelkable.com  Thank you so much for listening and I hope you have a wonderful week, Mindful Kind.
