Depression Research: Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy

Research revealed today outlines the success of group-taught meditation therapies, such as mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) when treating depression.

The Dove Clinic for Integrated Medicine offers a course of MBCT sessions that aim to teach patients the skills needed to help recognise and cope with the signs of depression.

Dr Richard Fuller of The Dove Clinic says, “Mindfulness approaches help us to focus on the present moment, rather than re-living the past or pre-living the future. This can help to halt the escalation of negative thought spirals and help with regaining control and confidence, and increase self-esteem.”
