Jumia Books Stop Overthinking Your Relationship

Stop overthinking your relationship by adopting a four-step approach to reduce rumination and change negative thinking patterns. This approach, developed by certified couples therapist Alicia Muñoz, draws from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness.

Key Takeaways:

1. Recognize Rumination: Identify the destructive patterns of obsessive thinking that erode trust and sabotage love in your relationship.
2. Understand Attachment Styles: Learn about your own and your partner’s unique attachment styles to communicate more effectively and meet each other’s needs.
3. Practice SLOW: Implement the SLOW technique, which involves:
   • Stopping negative thoughts
   • Letting go of blame and control
   • Opening up to vulnerability and authenticity
   • Working together to build trust and connection
4. Choose Your Own Adventure: Use individual and shared exercises to work through techniques alone, with your partner, or in combination, to achieve a newfound sense of security, confidence, and wholeness.
