Every Cognitive Distortion Explained Slowly (For Sleep)

Your mind can turn one small mistake into a disaster, ignore the positive, predict the worst, or convince you that a feeling must be a fact. This video explores cognitive distortions—the common thinking patterns that can quietly shape how we see ourselves, other people, and the future. We look at ideas developed through the work of Aaron Beck and David Burns, including all-or-nothing thinking, overgeneralization, mental filtering, catastrophizing, emotional reasoning, labeling, personalization, and more. We also explore how CBT helps us notice automatic thoughts and question the patterns behind them.
