The Benefits of Cognitive Aerobic Therapy

If it's set up as an experiment, there's two benefits. One is you're discovering it for yourself. The other thing, which is beautiful about cognitive aerobic therapy is that sometimes there's an unexpected outcome. It might be someone who cleans a lot and they might also have an intrusive thought, which is the house will burn down. So when we're anxious, we tend to think that more. But people with OCD, they get into a horrible pattern of having those intrusive thoughts and then doing the compulsive behaviors.
