The session will outline the background key themes and science of CFT in terms of the four functions of mind: motives, emotions, cognitions and behaviours. It will highlight the way the evolution of caring behaviour was the basis for compassion. Stimulating compassionate brain states seek to stimulate those psychophysiological systems associated with caring such as the vagus nerve, oxytocin and neurocircuits. These brain states have important impacts on helping people work with threat processing and facilitate prosocial relating to self and others.The aim of this workshop is to give people a general overview of the basic theory and principles of CFT and offer sufficient insight for participants to fashion CBT intervention through compassion motivational systems. These are trans diagnostic and transcultural concepts easily adapted to local end specific contextual requirements.CFT incorporates cognitive rooted interventions as one of its primary intervention skills. It also uses a lot of classical behavioural approaches with a focus on body based learning and change. Participants will learn how to orientate their CBT skills through compassion motivational processing.This workshop will be relevant to both novice as well as experienced practitioners. Wellbeing Practitioners would be welcome. Basic introductory knowledge of CFT is advantageous as this may not be covered in depth.
