Setting Goals » CBT Behavioral Activation #CounselingSkills #Counseling #MentalHealth #Wellness
Hello July ☼
▷ Since we are already three days into July; Here are some thoughts to reflect on…
What does a live worth living mean to you?
The idea of behavioral activation originates from cognitive behavior therapy principles (CBT), which states that our mood & quality of life can be improved by aligning our behaviors with things that we find enjoyable or important to us.
I encourage you to engage in some self-reflection & explore what values, pleasures, & mastery activities make your life worth living?
▷ “Values” are the things we find meaningful & important in life.
▷ “Pleasure” includes activities & hobbies that bring us joy.
▷ “Mastery” includes activities that involve the development of skills & a sense of achievement.
▷ “Goals” outline steps for us to experience more pleasure, mastery, & value-driven behaviors.
