The term \u2018Cognitive Dissonance\u2019 applies to a contradiction between a belief or thought we might have, and information we learn that challenges these thoughts and beliefs.

In today\u2019s episode, I talk about what cognitive dissonance looks like in our lives, how we can resolve it in a healthy way, and how it relates to mindfulness.

Many of our implicit biases are at play in cognitive dissonance, with the confirmation bias being the most pronounced.

And cognitive dissonance is something that does come up during the journey into mindfulness.

As we deepen our awareness, we start to see all the implicit and unconscious patterns we\u2019ve operated from for our whole lives.

This is fertile ground for cognitive dissonance, and I\u2019m so happy you are learning about it here!
