The power of transforming negative thoughts into positive emotions
Fiona Brennan is a much-acclaimed clinical hypnotherapist, bestselling author, Ted x speaker and positive psychology advocate. Having experienced the struggles of anxiety first hand, Fiona was driven to find an approach that not only helped her breakthrough her own mental barriers but one which she could then share with others. She is the author of The Positive Habit - 6 steps for transforming negative thoughts into positive emotions. Through her book and online programme, Fiona supports people to reduce their anxiety in order to thrive and flourish.
In this episode you will learn:
• How thoughts are habits too and the importance of reframing your thoughts
• What one of the most sought-after positive mental habits is and steps to take to attain it
• The key habit Fiona uses to maintain her positive emotions
The key question to ask yourself to integrate into your own healthy habits based on this episode is:
• What one small thing can you do now today to start taking care of yourself and your mental health?
I am a massive fan of Fiona’s work – which I’m sure you can tell as I’m positively gushing throughout the conversation. But also because she is someone who really walks her talk and is a huge inspiration in terms of what the power of working on your mental fitness can do. I highly recommend her weekly blog, which gets sent out every Monday morning it’s a fantastically positive way to kick start your week.
I hope you enjoy this episode with Fiona Brennan on the power of transforming negative thoughts into positive emotions.
