0:43 Wanting to get rid of thoughts and feelings is the problem, not the solution
2:34 Difficult experiences are NOT problems. We improve mental fitness by purposefully seeking out challenges
3:34 We can't expect to have skills and capacities we have not intentionally practiced
5:12 Shift the focus to mental fitness skills you want to build and keep, instead of brain stuff you want to avoid and control.
7:45 Is the goal of your mental health work to avoid drowning, or get skilled at swimming
10:12 Start with where you want to go. That shows us the skills and capacities necessary to get there. Avoiding the present is NOT a destination
11:09 Trying to manage and control symptoms can get us trapped in a cage we believe is helping to protect us
12:02 What will heavy weights look like for the skills you want to build? How can you practice lifting thoughts and feelings
