What is Causing You to Worry?

Dec 8, 2020

Today on ARIS Motivational Monday, Dr. Funke discusses worry, what causes it and how to overcome this feeling.

In her book, "Improving your Thinking", Dr. Funke shares how planning time to worry tricks the mind into finding a way to be distracted! This is step 7 of finding out what is causing students to worry, in the "Improving your Thinking" programme.

Students report that they do not need to worry when they plan time to worry and this helps them to practice more mindfulness in terms of their thoughts and how to control them.
