In this episode, I am going to discuss how we have the ability to assign meaning to intrusive thoughts and anxious feelings. We also have the ability not to assign meaning as well. So in this episode, I am going to talk about some reasons we fall into this trap and what to do about it. Enjoy the show.

I had an intrusive thought about Jesus and gave into thinking the intrusive thought, and i feel terrible for allowing myself to think it. Any tips for that?

Hi. Thanks for watching our videos. We created several workshops that focus on different topics that are helpful in your journey to OCD & Anxiety recovery. Check it out here: www.restoredminds.com/workshops

Here is a hack: OCD points out to you what you hold precious....you are NOT your brain....that is a silly misfiring of an organ. Dismiss the thought and know that it is picking that topic because you hold Jesus precious. If you loved puppies above all things, it would pick that for an intrusive thought. Hope that helps 🙏 And who more than Jesus would advise you to forgive your brain and go forth 🙏
