[00:00:00] Speaker A: Yo, what's up my self? Carefam. It's your girl, Riley Hart. Back with another dose of real talk that's gonna leave you feeling empowered. AF today, we're diving deep into something super important. How to ditch those toxic thoughts like they're yesterday's news and unlock a whole new level of awesome. Ever feel like your mind is a battlefield? You know that constant inner voice throwing shade, whispering doubts, making you question everything? Yeah, we've all been there. But guess what? It doesn't have to be this way with Gen Z. The generation raised on memes and instant gratification, right? So why are we still holding onto these heavy negative thoughts that drag us down like an extra heavy backpack in a crowded subway car? Let's get real. Toxic thoughts. Ah, like that one friend who always shows up with drama and negativity. They suck the life out of everything, leave you feeling drained. And honestly, they're just not worth your time. Okay, so here's the tea. There are five key things we need to do to kick those toxic thoughts to the curb and rewrite our story. Number one, awareness. You gotta know what those bad boys sound like before you can silence them. What triggers those negative thought spirals? Is it social media? A certain friend group? That never ending pile of laundry? Guilty is charged. Figure out your triggers and you're already halfway there. Next up, challenge the narrative. When a toxic thought pops up, don't just let it roll off your tongue like a tick tock sound bite. Ask yourself, is this really true? What evidence do I have to support this? Most of the time, those thoughts are based on fear, insecurity, or past experiences that no longer apply. It's like watching an old sitcom. Funny at first, but not exactly relevant to your life now, right? Number three, reframe your perspective. Look for the silver lining in every situation. Remember that meme about how everything happens for a reason. Sometimes it's gcaf, but sometimes it actually holds water. Think of challenges as opportunities for growth and learning. It's like leveling up in your favorite video game. You gotta overcome obstacles to unlock new skills and boss levels. Cultivate gratitude. Being grateful for the good stuff, even the little things, can totally shift your mindset. It's like switching from a griscale world to a Technicolor masterpiece. Write down three things you're thankful for every day. It could be your dog's goofy grin, that amazing latte you just had, or even just the fact that you woke up this morning. And last but not least, self care is non negotiable Treat yourself like royalty, bestie. Get enough sleep, eat nourishing food, move your body in ways that feel good, and surround ya' self with people who lift you up. You wouldn't run a marathon on an empty stomach, would you? So why treat your mind any differently? Imagine this. You're scrolling through social media and you see someone flaunting their perfect life. But instead of spiraling into envy or self doubt, you remember that it's just the curated highlight reel. You focus on your own goals and accomplishments, knowing that your journey is unique and beautiful in its own way. That's the power of letting go of Toxic Thoughts. It opens up space for positive vibes, genuine connections, and a whole lot more joy. Okay, here's the mic drop. Toxic Thoughts are like expired milk. They're bad news and need to be tossed at asap. But real talk, you've got this. You're stronger than you think and you deserve to live a life filled with positivity and abundance. Now go out there and own it. Wanna share your selfgarerx journey?
