“Most distress isn’t caused by events. It’s shaped by interpretation.

In clinical work, we often see how automatic thinking patterns intensify anxiety, shame, and low mood. These cognitive distortions are habitual, rigid interpretations of experience.

They can appear as all-or-nothing thinking (“If I’m not perfect, I’ve failed”), catastrophising (“This will be a disaster”), mind reading (“They must think badly of me”), or emotional reasoning — assuming something is true because it feels true.

These patterns are not character flaws. They are learned shortcuts that become inflexible over time.

Therapeutic work often begins by helping clients notice these distortions and develop more balanced appraisals.

As part of my clinical training, I continue to deepen my understanding of cognitive and behavioural models of distress.

Which pattern do you notice most often?”

A Buddhist monk asked his students — If you’re carrying a cup of coffee and someone bumps into you, why did you spill the coffee?

Each and every one of his students said because someone bumped into me.

No, he said, the reason why you spilled the coffee is because that’s what you were carrying in your cup. If you were carrying water, you would have spilled water.

Then he said something profound.

Whenever life shakes you, whatever you’re carrying is going to spill out. So if you’re carrying fear, jealousy, anger, greed, that’s what’s going to spill out.

But if you’re carrying love, compassion, kindness, that’s what’s going to spill out.

So, each and every day, you should pause and think to yourself, What am I carrying in my cup today?
