I really liked this article. In other words, when we practice being mindful of our mind, the negative thoughts, fear or whatever, we can re-wire our brains and our reflex reactions by making the effort to practice thoughts that work for us. It sounds easier than it is! But when I tell myself I am safe in situations that trigger ptsd reactions, and I can manage to do it enough, maybe over time I can feel actually have a feeling of being OK in those situations.

I am sort of working on this kind of thing with ftt. I have reactions, sometimes strong ones to the spring weather. I am hoping the more I tell myself I am safe outside or in my family room when the weather is spring-like, I will feel more comfortable. I hope.
