One thing I have learned from this program is how to turn a negative situation in to a positive situation while doing exposure work, for instance.
When I am out doing exposure work like going into a crowed store I have learned that exposure can be a very positive thing and you can relax and have fun doing it, if you look for the positive...Like when waiting in a long line at the check out, I pick up a magazine and read it while waiting in line..I enjoy reading the magazine so it becomes a positive and a little reward too..When browsing at the crowded book store, I pick up a few books and look at them and relax and have a good time...When at the doctor or dentist office I am now able to pick up a magazine or what ever they have to read and let myself relax...a little reward you might say..
The list goes on and on and can be a positive experience if you look for the positives.....
