What is Mindfulness Based Therapy
Mindfulness Based Therapy forms part of Third Wave Therapies
Third-wave therapies emerged in response to the perceived limitations of traditional CBT. They incorporate elements from mindfulness-based practices, Eastern philosophies, and other therapeutic traditions. These therapies emphasise acceptance, mindfulness, and values-based living.
They place a strong emphasis on accepting difficult thoughts and emotions rather than trying to change or eliminate them.
They promote psychological flexibility, which involves being open to experiences and taking committed actions despite emotional discomfort.
Third-wave therapies bring mindfulness to the forefront of treatment. By incorporating mindfulness techniques into a CBT framework, you can learn to observe your thoughts and emotions more objectively, allowing you to better understand and challenge unhelpful thought patterns with greater adaptability and resilience.
Third-wave therapies often take a holistic approach to mental health, considering the interconnectedness of the various aspects of your life. This broader perspective is integrated into CBT to help you work towards not only a reduction in symptoms but also overall well-being and personal growth.
