Publisher's Synopsis
BE Mindful Therapy (BE-MT) is a revolutionary new approach for treating psychological disorders, increasing mental functioning, and improving physical performance. The theories and techniques presented in this book are based on decades of psychotherapy experience, real-world clinical cases, and extensive empirical evidence for Mindfulness-Based Interventions (MBIs). Throughout the book, the author provides a comprehensive guide to understanding the mind and how to manage it through mindfulness practices. The book proposes a De-stressing theory and presents de-stressing techniques to manage and reduce Stress Load. This book provides a comprehensive examination of major psychological disorders such as Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), Depression Disorders, Phobic Disorders, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The book explains how mindfulness can treat eating, sleeping, anger, and aging difficulties. BE Mindful Therapy offers Let's Mindergize, a method that combines aerobic exercise, mindfulness, affirmations, and visualization to decrease chronic stress and improve mental fitness. Chronic stress adversely affects key brain regions and can lead to age-related brain shrinkage, prevalent in Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and dementia. The book includes discussions on the use of psychotropics and supplements in treating various mental health disorders. While these medications and drugs may treat disorders, they are not always necessary or appropriate. The author emphasizes the importance of mindfulness and other non-pharmacological techniques in managing mental health. He stresses the importance of working closely with a licensed healthcare provider to determine the best course of treatment. Manual-assisted BE Mindful Therapy is detailed in the next to last chapter as a systematic guide for training practitioners and a concise, step-by-step format for therapeutic intervention. For anyone seeking to improve their holistic health, the book is a valuable resource for a life of great possibilities.
