The Cork and The Bird

Pulkit Sharma - Clinical Psychologist & Author

When we allow our thoughts to control us, we can become like a tiny cork floating on water — pushed here and there by intense emotions.  But psychological freedom begins when we learn to step back from our thoughts. Then we become like a bird opening its wings. 🕊️We may still feel the wind, but we know how to choose our direction.   According to Pulkit Sharma, Clinical Psychologist, Psychoanalytic Therapist, Spiritual Counselor & Author, based in Pondicherry, India, sometimes, changing our mental script changes how we experience our lives.  #Psychology #MentalHealth #Mindset #Psychotherapy #PulkitSharma
