Mental Meteorology How Noticing Your Thoughts Leads To Healthier Habits Of Mind

We all develop patterns of thinking over our lifetime, many of which are unconscious and can undermine our mental health by trapping us in painful moods. There are ways to break the pattern: a 2016 study again validated Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) for treating depression.
