This kind of exercise is also a very big part of schema therapy. I don't know if it would work for me but from what I've read about schema therapy it's actually quite effective. Here's a link for more information if you're interested.

Conversation with my therapist:

Doc: "You know, for the past few weeks you've seemed very disconnected from your emotions when you're here."
Me: "I'm not disconnected from my emotions. I just don't feel anything when I'm here."
(Pause)
Me: "Doc, why are you banging your head against the arm of your chair?"
Doc: "Because I'm not close enough to a wall."

It's official. I can even make therapists crazy.
