Cognitive Therapy and Motivational Techniques to Crush Distortions
Cognitive therapy was created by Dr. Beck in the mid 1970s to help people overcome their resistance to change. It's a technique that focuses on crushing distorted thoughts and giving someone an experience of the truth they are trying to find. The first step is identifying these distortions, which can be as simple as writing them out on a piece of paper. This makes it much easier for you to talk back to those destructive thoughts or poke holes in them. You could also use cognitive techniques to get rid of your resistance to change from conscious awareness.
