Techniques for Retraining Your Brain
Why is it so hard to establish healthy habits? Recognised by psychologists, psychotherapists,
psychiatrists and the medical profession, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy or CBT is a well-tested
collection of behavioural techniques for managing moods and modifying undesirable
behaviours through self awareness, critical analysis, and taking steps towards goal-oriented
change. Built on a sold foundation of neurological and behavioural research, CBT illuminates
the links between thoughts, emotions, behaviours, and physical health and uses those
connections to develop concrete plans for self-improvement. It is an approach almost anyone
can use for promoting greater mental health and improving quality of life.
