Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT)
MBCT is enormously empowering for people who suffer repeated bouts of depression in their lives. It will help you understand what depression is, discover what makes you vulnerable to downward mood spirals and why you get stuck at the bottom of the spiral. It will help you see the connection between downward spirals and high standards that oppress us like feelings that we are simply "not good enough" and how we put pressure on ourselves or make ourselves miserable with overwork. Learn to get back in touch with what makes life worth living.
