Train Your Mind to Focus On the Positive

We’ve all been there: obsess­ing over what our spouse did, infu­ri­ated by their unkind words, rumi­nat­ing over a tough conversation. We suf­fer -- real or imagined --and the pain sticks with us for hours, days, or even years afterward. But it doesn’t have to be this way. Draw­ing on some of the lat­est find­ings from neu­ro­science, Ana Loiselle will explor­e with you how we can over­come our brain’s nat­ural “neg­a­tiv­ity bias” and learn to inter­nal­ize pos­i­tive expe­ri­ences more deeply—while min­i­miz­ing the harm­ful effects of dwelling on the negative can have on our marriage.
