Introduction
I often say, “These won’t change your life, but your life won’t change without correcting these!”
This course and guidebook will provide information & tools for understanding why you feel stuck in repeat thinking patterns, and how you might become more effective. Because its a very simple construct, as you’ll see, it runs the risk of being oversimplified by simply categorizing thinking in certain ways and as you learn the thinking traps, you’ll come to understand there is a lot of overlap between the main ten categories.
NOTE: I have found over time, that CBT practices challenging thoughts are most effective in conjunction with connecting to the body and soothing any fight/flight/freeze responses. Keep this in mind as you “unlearn and relearn” thinking skills, to include mindfulness and body-based skills in your recovery. “Calm the body, Calm the mind” is how I view this process.
In this Mini-course, you will learn:
- An introduction to the basics of CBT, the “CBT Triad” how each of the three elements of the triad – thoughts, feelings & actions – influence and impact each other.
- How you’re engaging in the thinking traps
- Tools for challenging the thinking traps and getting more rational and effective
What Will be Different:
You deserve peace and emotional safety, along with a good dose of self-trust! When you complete this course, you’ll be on your way to relearning ineffective thinking patterns and gaining more relief & peace of mind.
You’ll have more:
- Clarity around common thinking patterns that are unhealthy/ineffective.
- Improved ability to challenge irrational thinking
- Improve decision-making for yourself with effective thinking strategies
- Improve quality of relationships
- Increased understanding of how to manage yourself, not others
In Health & Wholeness, I’ll see you inside the course!
