The Approach
Spot-It™ is a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) method that rests on the belief that the way we think, and the way we act, affects how we feel. By learning to modify our thoughts and behaviors, we can lead more peaceful, productive lives — becoming aware of inaccurate or negative thinking so we can view challenging situations more clearly and respond to them more effectively.
Practical. Powerful. Permanent.
Research shows that routinely applying the Spot-It™ method can help you:
- Cope more effectively with stress and anxiety
- Decrease the symptoms of anxiety
- Feel better about yourself
- Enhance your self-esteem
This workbook and the Spot-It™ method are created for informational and educational purposes. They're not intended as a substitute for professional medical advice, and shouldn't be relied upon as such — always consult a doctor or qualified health professional with questions about your health.
“Between stimulus and response, there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.”
