Spiraling into the depths of our negative thoughts is easier than we think, especially when things don't work out as we planned. Still, we are the ones with better chances of talking ourselves out of the darkest places our mind can take us: "The biggest and best person we have to learn how to communicate well with is ourselves."
In this episode, we uncover the secrets of deeper and lasting wellness guided by the incredible Dr. Monica Vermani. Growing up in a household where the circumstances forced her to become a caregiver, Dr. Vermani feels the medical field chose her and not the other way around. She is a Clinical Psychologist, Founder, TEDx Speaker, Author, and passionate Mental Health and Wellness advocate. In her practice, "Dr. Vermani Balanced Wellbeing," she provides a multi-faceted approach using a variety of treatments and techniques, such as supportive Psychotherapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), Breath, Body, Mind practices, executive coaching, Mindfulness Meditation, Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT).
Throughout our conversation, Dr. Vermani shared several mental health and wellness strategies and explained why CBT and MBSR work and how they can help you reduce stress and improve mental health. You'll also hear about her journey into the medical field, the three distinctive ways problems manifest in our lives, and practical tips to improve our relationship with our inner voice.
Dr. Vermani also talks about the importance of sleeping hygiene, why she believes awareness is the first step in every healing journey, the significance of romantic words in relationships, and much more.
