Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT for short, is often cited as the gold standard of psychotherapy. Its techniques allow you to identify the negative thought processes that hold you back and exchange them for new, productive ones that can change your life. Increasingly popular among healthcare professionals, the CBT approach can be used by anyone to overcome common problems ranging from depression or anxiety to more complex disorders like OCD, PTSD, and addiction. CBT can also be used to simply developing a healthier, more productive outlook on life. This book shows you how you can easily incorporate the techniques of CBT into your day-to-day life and produce tangible results. You'll learn how to take your negative thoughts to boot camp and retrain them, establishing new habits that tackle your toxic thoughts and retool your awareness, allowing you be free of the weight of past negative thinking biases. Move on: take a fresh look at your past and maybe even overcome it. Mellow out: relax yourself through techniques that reduce anger and stress. Lighten up: hear practical advice on healthy attitudes for living and ways to nourish optimism. Look again: discover how to overcome low self-esteem and body image issues.
