About this ebook
Cognitive Balance offers a self-help approach to understanding and overcoming cognitive distortions, those unhelpful thought patterns that significantly impact our emotional experiences and mental health. The book emphasizes that recognizing and challenging these distortions can lead to improved emotional regulation and a better quality of life. It highlights that cognitive distortions, such as catastrophizing, can be at the root of anxiety and depression, and learning to manage them is crucial for mental well-being. By understanding how our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are interconnected, readers can actively manage their mental health.
Building on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), the book guides readers through identifying common cognitive distortions, understanding their impact, and developing cognitive restructuring techniques. For example, it introduces methods like thought records and Socratic questioning. Cognitive Balance distinguishes itself by emphasizing personalized cognitive restructuring, helping individuals tailor strategies to their unique thought patterns. The book progresses from introducing CBT principles and exploring various distortions to providing practical techniques and guidance for integrating these techniques into daily life.
