You do not have to listen to your thoughts

Episode Notes

Your thoughts after an exposure don't have to control you. 🧠 One of the biggest fears people have about ERP is getting stuck in a spiral of rumination afterward — but here's the truth: *that's part of the exposure.*

Anticipate what your brain will throw at you, let the thoughts come up, and don't engage. Easier said than done — but that IS the work. Redirect your attention, do something else, and disengage from the story your mind is telling you. 💙
