1. A B C
OF THE MIND
Automatic thoughts and cognitive distortions
2. The way we think about
things is decisive in the
way we feel and
subsequently on how we
behave.
So, by changing the way we
think, can we change the way
we feel?
Imagine that you are sitting at a bar and you see two of your
friends there, talking and, from time to time, looking at you. How you
feel about this situation will depend on what you tell yourself about it.
If you think, "How are they being impolite when they talk about me
behind my back." You would probably feel angry or uncomfortable
and think you did something wrong.
If you think: “Maybe they are talking about my birthday, planning a
surprise or thinking about a gift, it’s already next week! You can feel
happy.
3. Thinking is so natural that human
beings most often do not notice this
act
Even so, we easily perceive the
environmental stimulus and
emotional response
From thoughts to emotions
4. Thoughts are powerful
If we are aware of what is
going on in our minds,
understanding that
thoughts are not facts, we
can learn to control them
Automatic Thoughts
When we are 'depressed' we are often inundated by negative thoughts
"This has no solution", or "I will never do this properly", or even "I am worthless"
If, on the other hand, we are excited positive thoughts are more prevalent
"This is really going to happen", or "People like me / accept me", or "I do things well"
Automatic Negative Thoughts
5. COGNITIVE DISTORTIONS
Are biased interpretations of what happens to us, creating several negative consequences in the way we feel and
behave. We tend to jump to conclusions and assume the worst.

And... ACT On them!

12. "I feel that the interview did not go very well ... I am sure they will not
select me"
Fortune-telling
20. Are these thoughts true?
Are they real?
Can I know with absolute certainty that they are real? What evidence do I have that is real?
How do I react when I believe these thoughts?
Who would I be without these thoughts?
By becoming an active observer of our experience, we can recognize the difference between the things we
control and the things over which we have little or no control.
Challenge our thoughts
21. When we consciously choose new thoughts and behaviors, over a consistent period
of time, our internal emotional experience will naturally change for the better.
Editor's Notes
É necessário que sejamos realistas. Errar é definitivamente humano. Um doce não arruinará o seu regime. Lembre-se da sua meta e perdoe a si mesmo pelo deslize. Uma alternativa para essa distorção é ter a capacidade de ser razoável.
2) pare e reflita utilizando a seguinte estratégia: coloque seus pensamentos em perspectiva! Será que todos realmente riram de você? Será que foi a única pessoa no mundo que esbarrou em um arranjo de flores? Passar por isso não é nada agradável, mas no final das contas isso jamais seria digno de primeira capa de jornal.
Outros exemplos: “O meu namorado não me atende o telemóvel, deve estar com outra”.
3. é um mecanismo mental que transforma um episódio positivo em um episódio neutro ou negativo. Julia realizou bem um projeto proposto pela empresa que trabalha. Porém, continuou se achando incompetente, levando em consideração que foi apenas sorte. Se Julia praticasse o reconhecimento e a aceitação do resultado e identificasse os seus pontos positivos, certamente sua interpretação seria modificada.
4 . Refere-se à suposição de que as nossas emoções reflectem as coisas como elas são. É acreditar que o que sentimos no momento é o correcto e verdadeiro. “Eu sinto que é assim, consequentemente isso tem que ser verdade.” Bernardo precisa distinguir que os sentimentos nem sempre são a melhor ferramenta para medir a realidade, sobretudo se não está na sua melhor fase emocional.
5. Utilizar rótulos pejorativos para nos descrevermos, ao invés de descrever os nossos actos e qualidades com objectividade e exactidão. Colocar um rótulo, rígido em si mesmo, numa pessoa ou situação sem considerar que as evidências possam levar mais razoavelmente a uma conclusão menos desastrosa.
“Cometi alguns erros, mas nem sempre faço isso.Desta vez correu mal ”
6 . Essa distorção cognitiva consiste em maximizar os nossos próprios erros e os sucessos dos outros e, minimizar os próprios sucessos e os erros dos outros.
7. Consiste em focarmo-nos nos aspectos negativos e ignorar o resto da informação. O negativo é filtrado e absorvido, enquanto o positivo é esquecido.
8. Diz respeito a presumir, sem fundamentos, que sabe o que os outros estão pensando, não levando em consideração outras possibilidades muito mais prováveis. Nunca saberemos ao certo quais são os pensamentos do outro. As suposições infundadas devem ser descartadas através da análise dos indícios que existem no momento e do controle da tendência de ler a mente alheia.
9. concluir que a partir de um ou mais episódios, o resultado poderá ser aplicado aos próximos. . Se uma vez foi verdade, será sempre assim: “A mim nada nunca corre bem”; “Nunca me vou casar”; “Eu nunca termino o que começo”; “Eu jamais vou conseguir deixar de fumar”; “Não dormi bem ontem, a minha insónia vai durar para sempre” ou “Nunca mais vou conseguir ter um emprego bom como este”.
10. Este posicionamento de interpretar episódios como se estivessem a relacionados a ele, levando de forma pessoal, sem se ater aos demais fatores. pode ser combatido considerando explicações alternativas que não girem em torno dele
11. quando o sujeito mantém uma ideia fixa precisa de como ele e os outros devem se comportar, hipervalorizando o quão ruim seria se essas expectativas não fossem correspondidas.
São crenças rígidas e inflexíveis de como nós ou os demais deveríamos ser. As exigências concentradas em nós próprios favorecem a autocrítica, enquanto as dirigidas aos outros favorecem a raiva, a ira e a agressividade.
12. Consiste em afirmar que determinadas suposições são certas, mesmo que não exista nenhuma evidência para as comprovar, é esperar que nada dê certo, sem sequer permitir a possibilidade de que seja razoável ou positiva
antes de se apressar em atribuir impulsivamente significado negativo aos eventos. Comece a reconhecer a diferença entre as coisas que tem controlo e as coisas que tem pouco ou nenhum controlo. Quando realmente não tem controlo sobre os eventos externos, escolha aceitá-los verdadeiramente e largue a sua necessidade de controlar. Irá começar a ver que tem total controlo sobre seus pensamentos e comportamentos.
