Mindfulness for Health Anxiety

Preview

Do you worry too much about your health? Do you make yourself ill thinking you have a serious illness like cancer or a blood clot?

If so, Mindfulness for Health Anxiety is the course for you. We will use mindfulness: the practice of deliberately paying attention to the present in a non-judgemental way to reduce the power these negative thoughts have over us. It builds on our free 5-Day Mindfulness for Anxiety course to give you specific skills for dealing with health anxiety and draws on techniques from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT).

We'll start with a set of core mindfulness skills, before moving on to giving you specific exercises to challenge your anxiety. We'll learn why we get health anxiety, how to re-interpret our body's signals and feel more confident in our own skin.

Each meditation takes around ten minutes and uses guided audio for you to listen along.
