I’m excited to announce that we are hastening slowly to transform the world from the inner to outer, one DBT student at a time…
Up next: we will be exploring Mindfulness & Emotion Regulation skills.
For all groups (Adults, Teens, Mastermind Groups) we need a minimum of six and maximum of 10 students to make it work. (Low/Slow enrollment just delays the start date until we reach six, usually within a week or two of the posted target date.)
The Emotion Regulation module has four sections:
- Understanding and Naming Emotions
- Changing Emotional Responses
- Reducing Vulnerability to Emotion Mind
- Managing Extremely Difficult Emotions
The Mindfulness material includes:
- Learning to be a good observer
- Being non-judgmental
- Staying in the present
- Practicing being effective
- Accessing Wise Mind (aka higher self, higher consciousness)
- Understanding Reality Acceptance and detaching from negative or critical thoughts.
As DBT founder Dr. Marsha Linehan says, “It is difficult to manage your emotions when you do not understand how emotions work. Knowledge is power.”
- We learn to cope better with social anxiety issues, negative thinking and get out of the Blame Game.
- We learn to abstain from the “Compare and Despair” syndrome.
- We practice “Face it, trace it and erase it” as we work the DBT Skills and grow stronger and wiser with effective emotional regulation and expression.
- We learn to access “Wise Mind” and regain our center, remain calm. As it is written, “Serenity is not freedom from the storm, but peace amid the storm.” We learn to take a stand for our peace, and become bulletproof to bullies, nastiness and others’ negative remarks.
- We learn to practice Radical Acceptance, as needed, and problem solve when possible. We are no longer victims.
If this sounds good to you, please get in touch with me to start your enrollment process.
