178. When Old Thoughts Come Back: You Don't Need to Erase Your Mind

from Strong Is a Mindset · host Carrie Holland, MD, CPT

So you've done all the mindset work: read the books, listened to the podcasts, practiced the tools… only to find yourself slipping back into old patterns.   Maybe it's a critical voice that resurfaces during stress, or that familiar spiral of negative thinking that you thought you'd conquered. If this sounds like you, I have good news: you're not failing when old thoughts show up. The truth is, progress in mindset work looks different than we expect.   Tune in this week to learn why your old thought patterns keep showing up and what to do when they do. You'll hear why the goal isn't to eliminate all negative thoughts, why progress in mindset work is far more subtle than you might expect, and simple tools I use to catch myself before spiraling out.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://carriehollandmd.com/178   Follow me on Facebook and Instagram: https://www.facebook.com/carriehollandmd https://www.instagram.com/carriehollandmd/
