In the last few years, there has been an increased focus on the importance of thinking patterns in the search for better mental health. This is because it has been shown that different thoughts lead to different emotions and behaviors, and that these in turn can cause physical symptoms.
It has also been established that the way we think is not a product of a single event but a long-term, dynamic process. As a result, we need to consider the pattern, which is the way we think and the way we act. This is what the app Thinkable: Anxiety relief is all about.
Thinkable is a CBT-based tool that helps you improve your mental health by changing your thinking patterns. It is a self-help tool that you can use on your own or with the help of a mental health professional.
How does it work?
The app is based on the concept of cognitive behavior therapy (CBT). It is a treatment that focuses on the way we think and how we act.
CBT helps you to understand your mental health problem and the thinking that leads to your symptoms. It also helps you to identify the thoughts that are unhelpful and helps you to replace them with thoughts that are helpful.
CBT includes several key elements.
1. Learn to embrace positive thinking and act with confidence
2. Track your mood and see how your inner dialogue transforms and becomes more flexible and resilient
3. View a visual journal of your mood and progress
4. Throw away unhelpful thoughts
5. Embrace supportive thinking
6. Calm, relax and watch thoughts as they pass
7. Practice daily for maximum effect
8. Use the mood tracker and review how your mood changes
