All of these thought exercises really involve engaging in deliberate emotional regulation, not letting the brain’s amygdala (the mass of gray matter that’s involved with fear and aggression, in particular) hijack your feelings and run away with them. With all of these thought maneuvers, you’re basically turning the dial in your brain from negative thought processes that can send your mood and attitude into a nosedive toward positive ones that can heal and energize you. This way, your mind is reset to a more balanced perspective, allowing you to shape your thoughts or question them in smart, constructive ways. Besides helping you reclaim your emotional equilibrium, these healthy forms of mind control will help you move forward and improve matters in your own life and in the world around you.
In the seventeenth century, the French philosopher and mathematician René Descartes’s proposition, “I think, therefore I am,” was intended to provide a stable foundation for knowledge in the face of radical doubt. In the centuries since then, the world has certainly changed, but our basic human insecurities persist. With all due respect to Descartes, perhaps it’s time for an updated proposition: “I think well, therefore I am well.” Creating a foundation for emotional equilibrium in a tumultuous world is no small thing. Putting the power of your mind to good use by improving your critical thinking skills, correcting cognitive distortions, and consciously steering your thoughts in healthy directions not only buffers the effects of emotional triggers, it also engages the reward circuitry in your brain.
