Don't Believe Everything You Think
By Sara Olsher
- Default Title
Description
Adults and kids alike can easily get lost in the twisted, tangled world of our own thoughts. Our emotional experiences *feel* totally true, but reality is a lot more nuanced than our often negative thoughts might have us believe.
Explaining cognitive distortions (otherwise known as thought holes or thinking errors) to kids can be a tall order, because the concept that our thoughts aren't 100% factual can be confusing.
Teaching how twisted thoughts happen (and what to do about it!) takes the the confusion out of big feelings and out-of-control thoughts, which makes it easier for kids to feel a sense of power over their emotional experiences.
This is important book is the third in Mighty + Bright's highly anticipated "Emotions" series, introducing the concept of cognitive distortions and building on the coping skills introduced in the first two books. It is featured in Month 6 of the "Kids Mental Health Skills at Home" program.
This book covers:our emotions can create thoughts and our thoughts can create emotions;our thoughts are powerful and can get out of control;when our emotions are out of control, we can't hear or understand anything around us;different types of "twisted thoughts" that can send our emotions out of control;how to choose a new plan when we're upset;why there's no shame in losing control;what to do when we lose control.
