Product details

"Overcoming Unwanted Intrusive Thoughts: A CBT-Based Guide to Getting Over Frightening, Obsessive, or Disturbing Thoughts" by Martin N. Seif and Sally M. Winston offers a compassionate, evidence-based approach to understanding and managing intrusive thoughts that can be distressing, obsessive, or frightening. The book explains that intrusive thoughts are unwanted, automatic mental images or ideas that do not reflect a person's character or desires.

Key insights include:

Intrusive thoughts are common and not dangerous or predictive of future actions.

Trying to suppress or control these thoughts often makes them more persistent.

The book advocates acceptance and mindfulness techniques, encouraging readers to recognize and label intrusive thoughts without judgment or engagement.

Exposure therapy and deliberate, controlled acceptance help rewire the brain’s fear responses associated with these thoughts.

The amygdala, the brain's alarm system, often triggers false fear alarms in response to intrusive thoughts; retraining the brain reduces this response.

The process involves distancing oneself from the thought and reducing its emotional power by mindful observation and non-engagement.
