Are you aware of the power of the words you’re using day in and day out? 🗣️
I was listening to my coach talk about this on her podcast The Mind School where she was interviewing a psychologist who said the term “experiencing depression” instead of “struggling with depression“.
A lot of people wouldn’t pick up on the intentional change in wording there, but this is something I do too.
By changing the way you word things, you’re changing the power of the words you’re telling yourself each day.
Take a look at these statements, and notice how different they feel:
I’m struggling with depression 😶🌫️
vs
I’m experiencing symptoms of depression
My back pain
vs
The pain I’m experiencing in my back
I’m stupid
vs
Occasionally I do stupid things
They made me angry 😡
vs
Something they did or said brought up feelings of anger in me
The way you word things matters and the words you choose can either support your growth or hinder it.
How can you reframe the things you’re telling yourself? 🤔
I’d love to hear your reframes in the comments.
