The Mindful Chaos
The Mindful Chaos is a sanctuary where you discover that daily, trivial things in life may be all connected to your mental health. When being late isn't about being late, there's a deeper meaner to why you're always angry, and why a chore doesn't just feel like a chore.
A counsellor wannabe, Claudia Cheung, and an actual therapist, David Lui, aims to uncover the reasons to why you're feeling a certain way, and you may find out, you're not alone.
We're all connected in this chaos in our minds, so let’s turn it into - mindful chaos.
The Mindful Chaos
Is Your Inner Monologue Helping or Hindering You?
Is having a constant stream of thought good for your mental health, or is being able to visualize without audio better?
Can you turn off your inner monologue?
What is it like to not internal dialogues with yourself?
Claudia and David share their own experiences and how you could turn your inner monologue into more positive self-talk.
