How to disentangle from negative thoughts?

See this content in the original post

Just keep recognizing it; don’t judge it – it is just a thought. Just keep stepping away from it – ‘Oh, this is happening now; this thought is happening now’. Don’t feed it.

Vipassana practitioners remember this formula: whatever arises, step back and recognize it - ‘Oh, I know you now’. And when the next thing comes up, recognize it and step back from it. 

And, appreciate the awareness.
