To the core<br />

Hopefully you managed to track your thoughts back<br />

to the negative core beliefs behind them. It’s difficult to challenge<br />

these thoughts especially when you've spent most of your time<br />

focusing on things that makes you believe them.<br />

Write down the core belief, and then try and find evidence that<br />

proves it wrong. So the example in the last page was that the<br />

person thinks they are worthless. Asking a friend for evidence, or<br />

keeping a diary of things helps stop you forgetting them, otherwise<br />

you’ll only remember the negatives.<br />

Core Belief:<br />

(e.g. ‘I’m worthless’)<br />

Evidence it’s not true: (e.g. ‘Sophie said she wants to meet up’)<br />
