Thinking About Thinking: Unlocking Metacognition with Dr. Dave

from Air-Check Your Life · host Mathew Blades Media

Ever wondered why you react the way you do? Or how you could make better choices in the moment?   In this episode, host Mathew Blades and psychiatrist Dr. Dave explore metacognition, the art of thinking about your thinking. Dr. Dave explains how developing awareness of your own thought processes can help you create space between stimulus and response, offering practical strategies to break reactive habits and gain more control over your actions, especially in stressful situations at work or in life. Whether you’re quick to anger, struggle with anxiety, or just want to feel more in control, this episode offers insightful tools to help you respond with intention instead of reaction.
