Live @ Lunch!: Andrea Bonior, PhD - Detox Your Thoughts: Quit Negative Self-Talk for Good and Discover the Life You've Always Wanted

Join clinical psychologist and longtime Washington Post “Baggage Check” advice columnist Andrea Bonior, PhD, for this transformational event. Using techniques from acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness, Dr. Bonior will teach you to understand your thoughts–and your body–in a completely different way.

In a discussion of her new book, DETOX YOUR THOUGHTS: Quit Negative Self-Talk for Good and Discover the Life You’ve Always Wanted, you will learn to disempower and conquer self-sabotaging thoughts with specific and actionable steps.

Negative thoughts will never go away completely, especially in times like these, but Dr. Bonior will address the ten most common mental traps people fall into and how to break free of them. By changing the way you think, you can change the way your brain is wired. Learn how, through practice and habit, you can truly get those changes to stick.
