Often times if we start feeling overly dysregulated, we may respond with a closed mind.

This can happen when we are in a new or uncertain situation, when we’re feeling challenged/criticized or even the center of attention.

When we are closed minded we are blocking new learning capabilities which may affect our interpersonal relationships.

Unbeknownst to us due to our closed mind, a habit may have been formed because of being negatively rewarded through our choices. The anxiety/depression/emotions decreased however, what is important to remember is that acting this way may reduce it momentarily, but it doesn’t allow us to grow from the situation or change our reaction for the future.

Learning about different mindsets can be helpful with our continued growth and understanding of ourselves and our mental health needs.

What I’d like you to try today is to look in the mirror and repeat these words. When we practice affirmations consistently, we begin to start changing the way our brain picks up information by rewiring our neural pathways through neuroplasticity. 🧠Rather than focusing on the negative aspects, we change our thinking patterns and create more of a positive self-image.

So just how much in tax does Bezos really pay?
