8-week Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy For -Life
Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy for Life (MBCT-L) The course is designed to be taught in community group settings.
The MBCT-L course is intended for people who want to reduce stress, anxiety and/or depression and improve mental wellbeing. It is taught in a suitable and safe environment, in a group of no more than 16 people for 8 weekly 1.5 - hour sessions.
About the Course
Participants will practice mindfulness meditations as well as cognitive -behavioural approaches in ways that are accessible to all. Each week there is a different theme for the session and meditations and cognitive therapy exercises. There is time to reflect on meditations and exercises in small breakaway groups and then come back together to share with the wider group. Participants do not have to speak if they do not want to and no one is asked to share personal problems/issues.
The ultimate aim of the MCBT- L course is to help participants to make a radical shift in their relationship to the thoughts, feelings and body sensations that contribute to anxiety and/or depressive relapse. Participants are encouraged to develop a home practice of approximately 30 mins a day. All participants are given a handout each week with the main learning points and Home practice as well as access to a link to download the weekly meditations.
The course offers a different way of living that supports people to work with distress and difficulties, but also to savour life, realise their potential and experience gratitude. This supports people to feel more connected to others and to live in ways that are more consistent with their values.
