How Do Automatic Thoughts Impact Emotions In Seniors? Are automatic thoughts affecting your emotional well-being? In this informative video, we’ll explain how these quick, often unnoticed thoughts can influence feelings, especially in seniors. We’ll start by defining what automatic thoughts are and how they occur in everyday life. You’ll learn how these thoughts can shape emotions, sometimes leading to feelings of sadness, worry, or frustration. We’ll discuss common triggers for negative automatic thoughts, such as health issues, retirement, or loss of loved ones, and how they might contribute to feelings of depression or anxiety. You’ll also discover practical strategies used in cognitive behavioral therapy to help recognize and challenge these automatic thoughts. We’ll introduce simple techniques like keeping a thought record and practicing mindfulness to become more aware of your thoughts and how they impact your mood. By learning to reframe unhelpful thoughts, seniors can improve their emotional resilience, feel more positive, and enjoy a better quality of life.
