THREE WEEKS TO BETTER

MENTAL HEALTH

Welcome to our self-guided mental health course:

In this self-guided course, you'll be introduced to a set of tools to combat depression, anxiety, worry, and stress. The insights and practices are drawn from several evidence-based therapies that include Metacognitive Therapy (MCT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), and Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT). However, the core structure draws heavily on Metacognitive Therapy and mindfulness practices.

This course will show you how to reshape your relationship with your thoughts and emotions in 3 weeks and with just 30 minutes a day. Each step is designed to be flexible. You can spend as much or as little time as needed. Think of the provided dates as a practice compass, not a rigid schedule. Take the necessary time you need to feel comfortable with each strategy. After all, this is your learning journey, so do what feels right for you.
