Which of the following exercises would be attempted in order to change the thinking and the assumptions and attitudes underlying that thinking?
  1. Mindfulness
  2. Hopefulness
  3. Cognitive restructuring
  4. Deep breathing
Explanation
Answer - C - All of the responses, aside from cognitive restructuring, are used in guided imagery and meditation and are used to calm one’s images or perceptions around an issue. However, none are used to change the assumptions that underlie the thinking like cognitive restructuring. Once the underlying assumptions begin to change, then the beliefs themselves begin to change, usually over time and with some insight.
