Control Is Not The Most Important Thing

Therapy Thoughts: Fill in the blank, “Control is not as important as _____________.”

Control gets us so freaked out, so I like to reframe it and get a little perspective. Isn’t it interesting how we fight for control when really we can’t even have it? Our true control is in letting go. 🤯 🧘‍♀️

Control is a total illusion. Think of all the forms of control we engage in —>

Dieting is a branch of control.

Expectations are a branch of control.

Negative self talk is a branch of control. Gossip is a branch of control. On & on...

So as we chew on that, here’s my fill in the blank for today: Control is not as important as my mental health! Comment with yours.
