Mindful Cognitive Behavioural Therapy with Seth Gillihan

Listen Later

In this episode, I am talking with Seth Gillihan on his new book 'Mindful Cognitive Behavioural Therapy'. Seth is a clinical psychologist, best-selling author, podcast host, and creator of the Think Act Be Online School. He specializes in mindful cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT). Seth is no stranger to the podcast and joined me in an earlier episode speaking on ‘The CBT Deck: 101 Practices to Improve Thoughts, Be in the Moment & Take Action in Your Life'.

In this conversation we dig into the origins of his new book; Mindful Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, the new level of vulnerability that he displays through his work, the Think, Act, Be model of living, mindfulness-centred CBT, the anatomy of CBT, and much more. Subjects we explore in the episode include:

  • His underlying reason for writing the book. 
  • The vulnerable & personal pivot – very personal narrative (his illness) compared to his other work
  • Connecting with yourself – Think, Act, Be
  • The medical model and reaching beyond - Mindfulness-centred CBT
  • Goal setting - importance and relevance to achieving goals  
  • The Anatomy of CBT: Acceptance, Behavioural leverage, consistency, micro-tasking, present-focused awareness.
  • The importance of accessing inner self-talk & coming home to yourself.
  • Final thoughts and take-home messages from Seth

    • The book can be found here and is an excellent read: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Mindful-Cognitive-Behavioural-Therapy-Healing/dp/1399805363

    He also runs the 'Think, Act, Be' podcast that can be found here: https://sethgillihan.com/podcasts/

    Please enjoy this episode with a friend and fellow podcaster.
