Positive visualization of your future is the opposite of catastrophic thinking (negative anticipation). Often, we use the 'worst-case scenario' thinking to protect ourselves. When our prevailing thinking is only gearing towards the worst possible outcome, we can miss out the good that can come out from positive anticipation. Therefore, do yourselves a favor. Give yourselves the permission to have positive visualization every now and then. You will get unexpected benefits out of it. One of it is better mood, and more balanced thinking.

Our CBT chatbot https://chat.thetherapy.co/cbt_trial will facilitate positive visualization like a therapist. Try it out! 💗🥳

Studies have shown that the mental health of parents can affect their children, and the mental health of managers can also have an impact on employees.
