Sometimes a standard CBT treatment approach to overcome Depression overlooks our modern inability to stop or just Be. Yes, more activity can 'raise our mood' but without an understanding of the vicious cycle of activity this just becomes 'a flight without end'. Learn the 'art of Being'...

In teaching Mindfulness 8 week courses for nearly 13 years I have learned that people need to learn to sleep properly, to be disciplined about their sleep, before they can meditate properly. This video shows, mostly, verifiable science (the Vit D supplement has conflicting evidence and I would suggest it's better to use sunlight or lightboxes!). Do you have an Android/apple phone or smart wrist device? I provide one to one CBT coaching/therapy to help you improve your sleep quality.

Clinical Perfectionism will lead you to be always thinking 'that's not quite good enough'. In my CBT work with this trait we get people to learn to feel and think'that's good enough' but it doesn't always 'sink in'. I agree with the commentator in this article: the cure is really 'self acceptance' and I have noticed that an 8 week MBCT (Mindfulness cognitive course ) is the best way to learn that!

I have been using this approach, the MBCT approach for Tinnitus, for some time and knew it worked. There is now more significant evidence for this approach

This link is quite rigourous about the evidence for mindfulness. Many people offer 'day sessions' or 'online courses' or 'weekend retreats' but all the significant evidence is for 8 week MBCT + mbsr courses. This is probably because there is a psychological and therapeutic component and because you learn to integrate the practise with your normal life: new mbct course starting on Fridays, Welwyn Garden City- 12:30pm -2:45pm for 8 weeks from 8th February 2019 .

Louise Finch I found the course very beneficial and experiencing it has certainly heightened the way I look at life. It was by no means easy and takes commitment which I found hard at times with a young family but it was the start of a lifelong journey for me and I happened to meet some great people along the way. Life is not stress free in fact the older I get the more stress appears but I deal with things differently now. Well worth the investment
