Cognitive defusion helps you create a little space between you and your thoughts so you can notice them without being controlled by them.

If your thoughts feel loud, repetitive, or overwhelming, you’re not alone. Most of us spend a lot of time believing everything our mind tells us, even when those thoughts are unhelpful or untrue.
In our latest blog, "Feeling Stuck In Your Head? Try These Cognitive Defusion Exercises," we break down how to create space from your thoughts so they have less control over you. Read the full blog at the link in our bio.

Self-care isn’t just bubble baths and face masks—it’s showing up for yourself even when you don’t feel like it. It’s taking a deep breath when stress hits, moving your body when you’d rather stay in bed, setting boundaries even when it’s uncomfortable. What are you doing to take care of yourself today?�.�.�.�#embodiedwellnesscenter #chicagotherapist #chicago #mentalhealth #mentalhealthmatters #chicagogram #therapist #anxiety #therapistsofinstagram #chicagowellness #holistictherapist #mentalhealththerapist #therapistsofig #selfcarematters #mentalhealthawareness #selflovejourney #mindfulnesspractice #emotionalwellbeing #stressmanagement #selfcompassion #holistichealth #burnoutprevention #boundariesarehealthy #mentalhealthmatters #therapytools #innerpeace #healingjourney #wellnessroutine

When we push unpleasant emotions aside, they don’t disappear. They get louder, messier, and harder to tend to. Give yourself space to feel your feelings, whether that be through going to therapy, journaling, meditating, or mindful movements.
