Participation in the sessions involves skills practice, discussions, and group exercises based on the sessions' main topics. CBT-related topics include thought monitoring, identifying cognitive distortions, self-esteem, problem identification, goal setting, and identifying supports. Relaxation exercises, including a body scan (i.e., a mindfulness exercise) and progressive muscle relaxation, are also used for coping and to facilitate awareness of the body. Mindfulness activities include attention to skin, sights, and sounds and other meditations. Participants will practice their skills between sessions through homework assignments including monitoring and changing thoughts, and practicing relaxation exercises, meditation exercises, and mindfulness.
