Metacognitive Attention Training

This channel is dedicated to providing you with Metacognitive Attention Training sessions. My hope is that these videos will be as helpful for you as they've been for me in improving your mood.

Metacognitive Therapy is a relatively new form of therapy that is first described by Adrian Wells. Contradictory to many traditional forms of therapy, this method suggests that thoughts are best left alone and that we cannot fight thinking with more thinking. For me these attention trainings have been extremely helpful in guiding my attention away from my anxious or depressed thoughts and towards the world around me. 

Publications on the method suggest that Metacognitive Therapy is significantly more efficient in treating mental disorders as generalized anxiety and depression. I suggest you check out the work of Adrian Wells and Pia Callesen. Both 
are trained psychologists specialized in Metacognitive Therapy. The Attention Training Technique is developed as part of Metacognitive Therapy.
