Thank you for writing and sharing. First thing’s first - if you can email me (email address on my website) I’d like to send you an audio recording on practices for getting better sleep. There’s also a specific CBT program called CBT-I, which is cognitive behavioural therapy for the treatment of insomnia. It doesn’t work immediately but with consistent practice, it works. Here’s a video on the topic: ua-cam.com/video/YjJGfDHCaBU/v-deo.html I also recommend Breethe, this is an app with meditations and programs focused on sleep. Please note it is paid but I don’t have an affiliate code or anything to make money from your enrolment in the app; I use it myself and recommend it. 🙏🏼
I found thought challenging in regular CBT to be quite useful in temporarily relieving negative emotions. However, I found the behavioural aspects lead to longer lasting change.
Thanks so much for commenting! That makes perfect sense to me. I have a similar experience where I find in a good relationship with a client, I can use challenging to point out thinking as a problem but I’ve also found that mostly the behavioural intervention is what sticks in the long-term. Let me know what other videos you’d like to see. :)
@@TimothyGordon I love all your videos and can't have enough. :) Thanks to this video I now understand the difference between CBT and ACT. I came across ACT at a webinar for sleep issues. It resonated with me because in general I tend to resist the "bad things" and end up trapped in that struggle. I would like to see more videos of HOW to link the Acceptance with the Commitment part. I find it hard to take leap in some cases for practical reasons. Imagine for instance someone with chronic fatigue; you cannot simply tell them "accept your pain, leave your bed, ignore the pain, and go dancing!". In the cases of physical ailments, I would like to see how you would reconcile the two edges of the arrow (from your ACT matrix/lifemap video :) ). Thank You!
Been doing CBT for 6 years and not really worked for me. Been trying act this year. Either way it's going to take lot of repetition and time to change how you think about things.
Hi Travis! I think you’re right to point out that I’ve missed giving specific directions. I’ll make you a deal, I’ll produce a new video that is only about practicing CBT yourself, can you give me some examples of what you’d like me to address in the video?
I REALLY like how it doesn't feel like a magic trick. Providing pertinent information.
THANK YOU
Thank you for taking the time to comment. :)
The comments become so funny when you know the other meaning of the CBT acronym
🤣
Thank you. You are a great teacher.
Wonderful and Informative!
Thank you for the kind words. 💛
Interesting approach...
Thanks Ken! Please take a look at other videos I have on working with different approaches. I plan on doing more soon.
You are amazing!
Hi! Thanks for the info! I looked for the free course with ceu. Page could not be displayed.
Oh no. Sorry about that Natalie. Thank you for the positive feedback about this video. I appreciate it. 🙏🏼
@@TimothyGordon no problem! Do you still offer the course?
No, I wish I could. Sorry about that. I have low fee paid courses here: thezensocialworker.thinkific.com

Sounds like you have tight stagnant core beliefs that you're holding onto.
CBT

Where's the how to?

I'd like you to address how to forgive ourselves especially after a mistake_
How to stop guilting ourselves for everything
Compulsive basic training

But you are unlovable -🤣🤣🤣
