220 — 3 Nightly Questions to Ask Yourself to Build Emotional Intelligence, Boost Mental Strength, and Quiet Your Brain Before You Go to Sleep

Mentally Stronger with Therapist Amy Morin

Does your mind race at night? Maybe you replay everything that went wrong during the day? Or maybe you lie awake worrying about tomorrow?You’re not alone.

Asking yourself three simple questions every night can calm those thoughts, boost your emotional intelligence, and help you sleep better.

These questions only take a couple of minutes to answer, but they can rewire your brain for positivity and resilience. By the end of the episode, you'll have a nightly mental strength routine designed to improve your mental health and help you feel calmer and happier.

Some of the things I share are:

• The GHI Method: A simple 3-step formula using gratitude, hope, and inner strength
• How this nightly habit builds mental strength and resilience
• Why small, intentional reflections reduce stress and enhance personal growth
• The science behind practicing gratitude and its impact on your brain
• How to tie this routine to your daily habits for long-term consistency
• Personal stories of how GHI has helped others with anxiety and overwhelm
