True, but even the biological changes can be worked upon. CBT does help you work on that as well. When a new and helpful habit sets in, biological changes can also be the result of it (it is in most cases). For example exercising helps releasing endorphins in our body. In case of people suffering from depression, lack or endorphins makes it even worse and can sometimes be the root cause. So when the habit of physical activity sets, the biological working of releasing endorphins can be changed.Ogbara wrote: ↑22 Oct 2020, 17:07Yes, I agree, that while biological changes could be beyond our control, we should be aware of the fact that we can manage the way we react most times, by taking control of our thoughts. For a man, becomes what he thinks about.Christieee wrote: ↑08 Aug 2020, 07:57 Changing the direction of your thoughts can definitely cause a big change I personality and behavior. But behavior and personality are really broad spectrums, and so many other things come to play. Biological changes for example; for women, during their period they may notice certain behavioral changes that they sometimes have no control over. There is a also environmental factors and so on. I really believe that everything is interrelated. While everyone should strive to steer their thoughts in positive directions, sometimes it is beyond their control.

The author speaks about meditation, and one of the goals in to have better control over your behavior. The book talks about exercise, also as a way to feel better about your self, what influences bahavior. It seems everything touches it.
Furthermore, working to change a particular behaviour and learning a new behaviour has a lot to do with thinking and reminding yourself to behave and react in a certain way differently from how you normally react or behave.
And the exercise and other practices do help to modify perceptions and extreme emotional reactions thereby assisting in changing the subsequent behaviours.

I think we need to recognize that something in our life is out of balance and search out the help that we need whenever possible. Otherwise, this is an intriguing question.Fatima Saif wrote: ↑08 Aug 2020, 01:17 Cognitive Behavioral Therapy says that cognition and behavior are inter-related and have an influence on each other. If we want to modify behavior, we have to change our thoughts in the first place. Tensions, anxieties, depression arouses from our thoughts and perception of events. If our thought perceives an event traumatic, brain triggers such hormones that we become sad and tearful. It is true to some extent.
But do you accept this negotiation of external and internal factors in the direction of our behavior? Our behavior is not only directed by cognition. Our personality traits, our bonding and attachment (emotional factor) with our relations, environmental factors, genetic factors, and traumatic events all make us behave differently than we normally do.
Do you think that only changing thoughts changes behavior and everything? Share your prestigious views from your observations, personal experiences and everyday life?
I sensed something was wrong in my life but I did not talk to people about it because I did not know who to trust. I also thought they would think I was complaining. We moved a lot and I never got to know people well so it made it difficult to know who to talk to.
After a family member sought out help, others began reaching out to me and I realized that the things that I sensed were indeed true, and that helped me on my journey to learning, growing and implementing change in my life for healing.
