Bounce-Back From Depression

"MBCT is a systematic training in mindfulness meditation techniques to teach participants skills to prevent relapse/recurrence of depression. Treatment includes weekly 2-hour classes over an 8-week period with home exercises, a full day of practice (6 hours long, adapted for online delivery), and 4 booster sessions offered every 3 months from the start of the programme.~Standard pharmacological treatment usually provided to patients suffering depression."

"The 'MBCT self-help' is based on the book 'The Mindfulness Way: An 8-week plan to free yourself from depression and emotional stress'. The book presents the 8-week MBCT course as a self-help booklet. Participants are asked to guide themselves using the self-help book. The book provides elaborate and practical mindfulness guidelines that can be exercised each week, as well as questions to help with reflection, ways to check progress and valuable feedback from others who have undertaken this MBCT programme.~Standard pharmacological treatment usually provided to patients suffering depression."
