Tricky Brain
ReplyDeleteIt is helpful to remind ourselves about Tricky Brain when we get caught up in self-criticism, self-hate and feel shame.
The brain and neurobiology, human nature, and our life experiences all influence the way our mind works.
It is not our fault we think this way! We are simply doing the best we can. It's just the way the brain works.
CFT says there are 3 types of regulator systems that affect our state of mind:
Incentive/resource focused - achievement, motivation
Non-wanting affiliative focused - safeness, soothed.
Threat focused - seeks to protect us and keep us safe.
When we've experienced repeated trauma, particularly early in life, then we spend a lot of time in our threat focused system, so our focus of attention, thoughts, feelings and behaviour are taken up with fear, danger and trying to keep ourselves safe.
Compassionate Self Talk & Your Personal Tool KIT

We all have internal dialogue in our heads, it is very often self critical and we judge ourselves far harsher than the way we judge other people. We can practise noticing when we do that, and start to use Compassionate Mind.
Bring your Compassionate Image to mind.
See situations using Compassionate Mind: If I wasn't feeling so emotional, how else would I see this situation?

The key is to find ways to deal with those negative events in a positive way. It is fine to experience the pain of a negative event. But, after acknowledging the pain, it is also important to get up and try again—to remember that failures and illnesses and bad relationships are not a verdict on your worth as a person, but just another hurdle to be overcome. Ultimately, you need to learn to treat yourself with the same kindness you would show to others in the same situation.
Compassion, like physical and academic skills, appears to be something that is not fixed, but rather can be enhanced with training and practice.
SUMMARY
⦁ Now that we have seen how we can generate alternatives to our self attacking thoughts, we
can explore ways to help them have more emotional
impact.
⦁ It does not take away painful realities,
but it can help us to cope in a different way.
May we be free of suffering.

Build a tool kit for your life.
⦁ The training part can be like going to a physiotherapist, where you learn to do exercises and build up certain
strengths.
⦁ The compassion systems in your brain are the ones we
are trying to strengthen with our exercises.

Compassion wrongly expressed (the provision of fish) may result in immediate alleviation of suffering but no long-term effects.
ReplyDeleteCompassion expressed in the right way (for example, teaching a skill) can and should provide long-term solutions. Remembering this could save a lot of pain later
