Learn how to battle intrusive thoughts and create more peace in your mind and in your relationships.

We cover the natural thinking pathways that lead to catastrophizing behaviours and how they become overused. We can then address how to start building healthier behaviours that reduce and calm our worries instead of amplifying them.

This is an incredible game-changer for relationships as well as helping improve your social life and work life once you can better control your worries and fears before they control you.
