Description
|
Mindfulness is a mental state that requires deliberate and continual attention to whatever is experienced in the present moment with a non-judgemental and non-reactive attitude.
Mindfulness-integrated Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (MiCBT) uses a 4-stage model that integrates mindfulness meditation and the core principles of traditional Cognitive Behaviour Therapy to address crisis and help prevent relapse in a wide range of acute and chronic disorders.
In this workshop, MiCBT will be explained from its neurobehavioural basis, illustrated with latest research in neuroplasticity and Neural Networks Theory.
Participants will gain familiarity with the various stages of mindfulness meditation leading to neuroplasticity, learn how thoughts and body sensations interact to promote reactivity, and how we can eliminate long-lived unwanted behaviour and promote wellbeing.
