Your thoughts and feelings are not facts

<p>Ep #164 - Your thoughts and feelings are lying to you. How you think you are experiencing a situation, and the feeling it evokes in you, are both part of your filtering process. Knowing how to separate the facts of a circumstance from your biased thoughts and feelings is essential in stepping into the actual reality of any situation.</p> <p>Just because you think it doesn't make it a fact. Simply having a feeling doesn't mean it is real to anyone else but you. We are not taught how to think and feel in school. People who raised us, the village at-large, have as much emotional intelligence as they have and from what I have gathered over the years - everyone has their blind spots. I think it's time we discuss how your thoughts and feelings might be leading you astray.</p> <p>In this week's episode I will walk you through "The Model" as taught to me by Brooke Castillo. For reference here is the way it will look when you write it down.</p> <p>Circumstance</p> <p>Thought</p> <p>Feeling</p> <p>Action </p> <p>Result</p> <p>Just hit play and let's dive in with our open minds, hearts, and energies bringing everyone into the fold - you are in the right place, at the right time...right now.</p> <p>It is time. It has been time. To live is to shine. Step into the SUN.</p> <p>Stand up, step forward, raise your hand - it's your turn, I will call on you.</p> <p>I know you enjoy the show, so please subscribe, rate, and <a href='https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/from-sobriety-to-recovery-an-addiction-recovery-podcast/id1448326367'>click this link to review</a> on iTunes - even if you listen on Spotify or others apps.
