Emotional Reasoning

Assuming that negative emotions necessarily reflect the way things really area.  This is what emotional reasoning sounds like in or story… “I feel terrified about going on airplanes.  It must be very dangerous to fly.”  Or, “I feel guilty.  I must be a bad person.”  Or, “I feel angry.  This proves that I’m being treated unfairly.”  Or, “I feel so inferior.  This means I’m not smart enough.”  Or, “I feel hopeless.  I must really be hopeless.”

How can we turn this narrative around so these stories support us?

Let’s have a conversation.
