00:09Alright, today we are going to talk about how to use positive self-talk for better mental
00:14health.
00:15Self-talk is basically the conversations you have with yourself in your mind.
00:19It reflects your beliefs, thoughts and feelings and can be either uplifting or discouraging.
00:24If you're naturally optimistic, your inner dialogue is probably more positive, but if
00:28you lean towards pessimism, it might be more negative.
00:31Shifting to positive self-talk is a powerful tool for managing stress and boosting your
00:34overall health.
00:36Studies show that having a positive mindset can improve your quality of life.
00:401.
00:41Why Positive Self-Talk Matters.
00:43Positive self-talk can enhance your performance and well-being.
00:46Athletes use it to boost endurance, and it offers many health benefits, like.
00:50More energy, better immune function, reduced stress, reduced pain, and improved heart health.
00:55Athletes are better at handling challenges and stress, which might explain why they experience
00:59these benefits.

01:01How to Practice Positive Self-Talk.
01:03Start by recognizing when your self-talk is negative.
01:06Common negative thinking includes, blaming yourself for everything, focusing only on
01:10the bad, expecting the worst, and seeing things in extremes.
01:14Once you spot these patterns, practice flipping them into positive thoughts.
01:18It takes time, but even small changes can make a difference.
01:213.
01:22Some Examples.
01:23Negative, I'll disappoint everyone if I change my mind.
01:26Positive, I can change my mind, and others will understand.
01:29Negative, I failed and embarrassed myself.
01:32Positive, I'm proud I tried, that took courage.
01:35Negative, I'm overweight and out of shape.
01:37I might as well not bother.
01:39Positive, I'm strong and capable, and I want to get healthier for me.
01:42Negative, I've never done this before, so I'll be bad at it.
01:46Positive, this is a great chance to learn and grow.
01:49Negative, there's no way this will work.
01:51Positive, I'll give it my best shot.
