I was flicking through FB the other day when I came across this post which read "expecting positive thinking to cure depression is like expecting a person with diabetes to lower his blood sugar level by thinking happy thoughts"
My gut feeling to this post was horror, as a Hypnotherapist, I teach people to manage and overcome their depression by doing exactly that!
Then I started to really think about what this quote really meant and what I do exactly, and then I realised that actually, I do an awful lot more that just get depressed people to think positive thoughts.
Although positive thinking is important in helping people back onto the road to becoming "their normal", what's even more important are the changes that they make along the way.
Change is what I encourage most in my clients. By getting them to start making small changes in their lives, we can get then get them to change their thinking, change their behaviour and ultimately change their life for the better.
Positive thinking therefore is really important, but it is just part of the jigsaw which can help you to start moving forwards to become that confident and positive person you know you can be!
