How to Regulate Yourself
|
WITH ELIZABETH FERREIRA
|
|
"It's about finding the missing element. Not necessarily what happened to you, but what didn't happen; what didn't have an opportunity to get a sense of empowerment." – Elizabeth Ferreira
|
One of the most important skills we can learn is how to regulate ourselves, riding the emotional waves without either ignoring or being overwhelmed by them. Associate therapist Elizabeth Ferreira joins Forrest to explore how we can feel our feelings while staying calm, collected, and in control.

ASK RICK:
|
I have problems with general food cravings and have done hypnosis where you think of a problem food, like chips or candy, and then think about maggots and rancidity and bad smells. What do you think of this idea?
|
|
This technique is classic counter-conditioning, where one tries to replace a reward associated with a stimulus (e.g., cookies, chips) with a punishment.
|
"The bottom-line would be whether it works for you."
|
The little I know about fitness, weight loss, etc. is that leaning toward the good (e.g., feeling healthy, living longer) tends for most people to be a more sustainable motivator than leaning away from the bad (e.g., pictures of unappealing obese people on the refrigerator), in part because negative motivators are a fast-track to self-criticism, etc. |
