Published: July 15, 2020, 7 a.m.

It's natural to feel stuck and weighed down by negative self-talk when suffering from PCOS. While it is a very difficult condition to live with, bad thoughts are simply adding to the pain you may already feel. In today’s episode, Dr. Malhorta discusses the power of thoughts and the role they play framing your worldview. It's not that thinking is a problem itself, but rather the way that you think. If you choose to focus on the negative, then everything will appear that way. Dr. Malhorta walks us through Jim Fortin, her transformational coach’s master thought formula, and the three thought levels he describes. We learn that most of us are not living consciously. Rather, we are operating on autopilot, getting carried away with our thoughts, and believing the stories we tell ourselves. Dr. Malhorta gives us some actionable advice on how to let go of bad thoughts and create good ones instead. Remember, you are the thinker of your thoughts, and you have more power over them than you might realize. Be sure to tune in today!
