Taking a fearless inventory of scripts by which we live, then deciding if these are the scripts we want to keep is an essential first step. Remind yourself that this is the way to change yourself and the responses of others around you.
Ever feel trapped in a cycle of negative thoughts and behaviors? In this episode of 'Recovery Road', Cynthia Moreno Tuohy and Victoria Costello, authors of *Rein in Your Brain: From Impulsivity to Thoughtful Living in Recovery*, share their wisdom on self-fulfilling prophecies. They dive into how our painful experiences in relationships can lead us to repeat harmful patterns, often without even realizing it. But there's hope!
By taking a fearless inventory of the negative scripts we follow, we can start to understand how they shape our reactions and interactions. This episode sheds light on knee-jerk reactions, blame-shifting, and other coping mechanisms that hinder mutual respect and understanding. Tuohy and Costello provide practical strategies to help you reign in your brain and change these destructive patterns. By embracing self-awareness and a willingness to change, you can transform conflicts into opportunities for growth.
Tune in to discover how you can break free from these self-fulfilling prophecies and pave the way for healthier, more respectful relationships.
