Increasing activity is a very important first step in mental health recovery. Psychologists support their clients to plan and achieve realistic and manageable increases in activity to help improve mood and energy levels.
Activity Scheduling is a powerful technique used in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to help individuals enhance their mood and overall well-being. By planning and engaging in a variety of activities throughout the day, you can create a balanced routine that supports mental health and help overcome the “stuck-ness” and lethargy that comes with depression.
In our latest blog post, Clinical Psychologist Shriya Mathur explains what Activity Scheduling and how you can incorporate five key types of activities—achievement, pleasure, social, physical, and self-care—into your daily life.
