Summary

Why is it so hard to lose weight, stop smoking, or establish healthy habits? Why do couples argue about the same issues over and over? Why do so many people lie awake at night, stricken with worry and anxiety? Why is it so difficult to come to terms with a loved one's death, even if it's after a long illness?

The answers to these questions - and the path to lasting change in your life - lie in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), a well-tested collection of practical techniques for managing moods and modifying undesirable behaviors through self-awareness, critical analysis, and goal-oriented change. CBT illuminates the links between thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and physical health and uses those connections to develop concrete plans for self-improvement. Built on a solid foundation of neurological and behavioral research, CBT is an approach almost anyone can use for promoting greater mental health and improving quality of life.

In 24 engaging half-hour lectures, you'll build a robust and effective self-improvement toolkit with the expert guidance of Professor Satterfield of the University of California, San Francisco. You will explore CBT's roots in Socratic and stoic philosophy, build a toolkit of CBT techniques, and hear about the latest research about its outcomes. Additionally this intriguing and practical course allows you to take on the role of medical student, physician, psychologist, and patient.

Throughout the course you'll explore issues that cause people to seek out therapy. In some cases you'll get to hear Dr. Satterfield working with a patient, and in others you'll be delving into research to find what causes issues and how CBT helps to resolve them.

Everyone has something about their life that they would like to improve. With the tools in CBT and the desire to make your situation better, you can create lasting change in your life.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Amazing course - both theory and practice

This is one of the best non-fiction audiobooks I have ever purchased, and hands-down better than any self-help book I have ever used. (I include even David Burns' classic Feeling Good, which is great but takes a lot more effort to get into and apply). Professor Satterfield strikes a wonderful balance between very clear and concrete practical guidance for daily life and setting out the theoretical underpinnings of the CBT model and carefully explaining the evidence base for the various techniques. The case studies are very illuminating and Professor Satterfield does a great job of avoiding a reductive or overly schematised picture of the challenges of human existence within the CBT framework. Highly, highly recommended.

Good but I struggled a bit

This is a lengthy listen. Thankfully the narrator is easy to listen to and the real-life people likeable, which makes it easier to continue. But around half way through, it just felt really heavy and some of it un-relatable or unrealistic to practise in my life and so I really struggled to keep up listening. I think this could probably have been a much shorter; I've come away with a better understanding of what happens during CBT but could I sit down and practice self-help? No, I'd have to listen again and again for it to become practical and understood.

impressively interesting

As i am studying a counselling diploma, i was looking for a better understanding of CBT. I could not have asked for more! Everything was explained so clearly and thoroughly and the examples were a great way of seeing how the techniques are put into practice.
I really wish there were more audible books like this!! Driving will not be the same without it!

I was sad when it was done

The best book I have ever had from the start I was locked in. It was very insightful and eye opening. It's just a most read. I am all the better for having listened and will be starting all over again. A joy.

Fantastic

Loved it, great techniques. Ok, I didn't lose weight or cut down my drinking. But hearing the stories of others has helped me feel more appreciative of my life, more understanding of others and definitely more open minded. It gave me tools and I can pass them on.
