Finished my work day with an awesome mindfulness meditation and #cbt seminar.
Got me thinking about Melanie Câs empowering lyrics & how they flip the script on negative thinking (aka cognitive distortions in psychology)

Let me explain further in this thread

#labelling - Who I Am
âIâm comfortable with whatâs inside. You think youâve known me all this time, but the real me is mineâ
This song is all about owning who you truly are and not letting anyone or anything change how you feel about yourself.

#personalization - Blame It On Me
âNow I know youâre poison, can you hear the voices filled with paranoiaâ
This songâs got this witty, sarcastic tone about recognizing a toxic relationship & the negative voices in our head that have no right being there!

#allornothing - Good Enough
âif I leave you behind, I believe I will find something good enoughâ
I think this song is about letting go of perfectionism (internal or external forces) and embracing our personal qualities.

#overgeneralization - Escape
âBreaking down, breaking out from the thoughts, from the doubtâ
So often, we let negative experiences dictate who we are and our fate. This song serves as a reminder that your past does not define your future. Carpe diemhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="âš" title="Funken" aria-label="Emoji: Funken">

#shoulds - Overload
âI donât want to be your acceptable version of meâ
Itâs so easy to fall into the trap of thinking what we HAVE to do instead of what we truly WANT. This song is about speaking up when youâre feeling burnt out & pressured to meet other peopleâs expectations.

#disqualifythepositive - Fearless
âIt ainât a crime to be feeling yourself, no better time to excel, no better moment to rule your worldâ
This song is all about breaking down those negative comparisons we make about ourselves and embracing all of our strengths and opportunities.

#mentalfilter - Here I Am
âThey said I was too old, that all the embers had turned cold, but Iâm on fireâ
This song is all about using a positive lens to find the strength in your weaknesses and resisting any internal or external voices putting you down!

#magnify - Nowhere to Run
âNo mistaking, youâre overtaking, without me letting my guard downâ
A dark song with a perfect metaphor for panic attacks and catastrophising. This song brings me comfort in knowing that these feelings are common and can be managed. âI gotta breathe outâ

#emotionalreasoning - In and Out of Love
âWe donât have the time here to lose. By tomorrow Iâll be goneâ
An apparent frivolous dance track, with a hidden meaning. Have fun on the dance floor but donât fall in love too fast based on irrational (possibly inebriated) thoughtshttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đ" title="Zwinkerndes Gesicht mit Zunge" aria-label="Emoji: Zwinkerndes Gesicht mit Zunge">

#jumpingtoconclusions - End of Everything
âOh no Iâm not scared, wonât let these eyes see redâ
A beautiful ballad about finding solace in endings & new beginnings. Instead of getting fired up, Melanie talks about controlling her emotions & forging a new path for herself.
