Hey Margret good video. We have survived life’s ups and downs and have reached over 60. For me over 71 let’s give ourselves a pat on the back and say. Well done 🎉
As I said before, I’m loving your recent videos, ie Stoicism! Self talk is difficult to change, as is being stoic, but I keep trying! I’ve been dealing with a very sad and troubling family issue. I’ve decided that worrying will make me sick and I’m 77 with recent open heart surgery. I have forced myself to let it go and not to worry about it. Tough, but doable!Thank you Margaret!❤❤
Hang in there!
Hi, I am the same age. I watch quite often 'Stoicism Everyday'. Great videos on philosophy.
Negative self-talk is hard to change. I admire your finding a way to do it and wish you a speedy recovery after your surgery. My problems seem petty compared to others.
Margaret, thank you for your interesting conversations. I have a husband with an auto immune disease and we have been quarantined for 4 years. To say I feel isolated is an understatement. Thank you for being a lifesaver, during a very challenging time.😮
i wonder if you could find an online support group for caregivers? i know that was a thing during the pandemic.
Good Tuesday 🌅 morning, Margaret . I have found that I feel better when I can turn a negative situation into a positive situation🎉🎉🎉 but it takes practice. You look 🌹 lovely in your green 💚 top , I 🤔💬 think green must be your color🎉🎉
Margaret THANK YOU I needed to be reminded not to be hard on me ESPECIALLY WHAT I CAN'T change things I worry worry worry About! I will be practicing REFRAMING 🎉
You can do it!
Whenever I start to experience thoughts of anxiety about something that I cannot control, I say this to myself over and over again, until I feel a sense of calmness: “Stop worrying about what could go wrong, and start feeling excited about what could go right”…….and this really does help me to shift my thinking in a more positive direction.
Thank you Margaret for this guidance! I have always been a nervous driver, especially on the freeway. I listened to car accidents (claims adjuster) as a profession for a few years and it made me a very defensive driver. While driving, I look at other drivers, and they look like they are enjoying themselves! Also, I figured if my 90 year old Dad can handle driving on the freeway in LA, so can I. I reFRAMED my mindset from expecting an accident to enjoying the journey, especially long ones, and wow, what a difference!!! It changed an anxious experience to one I am relaxing enough with that I can enjoy it!
Self talk should be a regular part of our life when you live alone. It keeps me grounded and that means I can deal with things differently.
There's an old joke that 99% of the terrible things we worry about don't happen. Different terrible things happen! Just joking, yes let's talk to ourselves kindly.
When i catch myself on negative self talk I think a positive instead. It lessened with self correction
I try to do that also!
Thank you for this video Margaret, very helpful but I cannot see the link to the article that you mentioned
Another perk about being in Patreon are insightful articles that come to your inbox. 🥰
Excellent advice! I am a ruminator.
Its just what I needed now cause my daughter's sick and its worrying me so much after all its just a cough and flu.
Thank you Margaret.
I need to change my mindset to positive thinking. ❤
Margaret you always seem to talk about topics that hit home. Thank you. The video helped a lot.
Glad it was helpful!
I want to go on the trip you are planning for 2025 !!!
Hi Elena - we have a river cruise coming in December - best to join our Patreon group since trips are announced there and usually sold out before I announce a them to the wider you tube community :-)
98% of worries are groundless. Dont give catastrophising rent-free space in your head. Futurising is futile. The future isnt here.
I think anxiety causes the negative ruminating, rather than the other way round.
Thank you Margaret for another great video❤
Loved it ! REFRAMING !😂❤
Great topic. Where can I find Jane's article Thank you.
On our website :-)
Your talk comes at a very good time since I am suffering with depression and anxiety. It’s helpful to me just to listen to you talk. Your voice is so soothing to me and this topic hit home for me. Thank you for your help ❤️
You are very welcome Peg! Take good care please. 🦋
LOL … thinking about this, I realize my other self is very critical of me ! I need to tell myself… I’m fine, I’m blessed and I need to appreciate everything in my life that is a blessing. And I have many. 🌹♥️
