Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy

Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) is a form of therapy that combines elements of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness meditation.

The main idea behind MBCT is to help individuals become more aware of their thoughts and feelings, and learn how to respond to them in a more productive way. Individuals learn to identify negative thought patterns and automatic responses that may be contributing to their emotional distress. They then work on developing a more mindful and compassionate response to these thoughts, which can help to break the cycle of negative thinking and improve emotional wellbeing.

Overall, MBCT aims to empower individuals to take control of their own mental health and develop lifelong skills for managing stress, anxiety, and other common emotional challenges.
