Can You Change Your Mind for a Better Future?

What is your identity inside yourself?  What if how we have identified ourselves is taken away, like a job, a family or a persona that you have presented for decades?  How can we change our thoughts to live a life that is what we may have seen in our dreams or we wished we could live?  Do you understand how the brain works or do you just get up and move with the chatter in your head?  Who is really in control?  What is thriving in contrast to surviving?  What part does depression play in a stuck life?Jennice Vilhauer, PhD, is a psychologist at Emory University and author of Think Forward to Thrive:  How to use the mind's power of anticipation to transcend your past and transform your life.  She is the developer of Future Directed Therapy which helps clients to create better futures in the field of cognitive therapy.For more information visit:  www.FutureDirectedTherapy.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/wellness-radio-with-dr-j--4618136/support.
