Summary
Today we welcome Seth Gillihan to the podcast. Seth is a licensed psychologist who specializes in mindful cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). He received his doctorate in psychology from the University of Pennsylvania. Seth is also a therapy advisor with the self-therapy app Bloom, a medical reviewer for Everyday Health, and host of the Think Act Be podcast. Over the years, he’s authored multiple books on mindfulness and CBT. His latest book is called Mindful Cognitive Behavioral Therapy: A Simple Path to Healing, Hope, and Peace.
In this episode, I talk to Seth Gillihan about mindful CBT. Cognitive behavioral therapy is often used to address mental health issues. Although proven to be helpful, Seth Gillihan believes that adding the component of mindfulness will not only improve our well-being, but can also help us find meaning, purpose, and peace. He shares with us the Think Act Be paradigm and ways we can be more in tune with ourselves. We also touch on the topics of alignment, spirituality, suffering, and openness to experience.

| 0:00.0 | It sort of redeemed CBT for me because I was at a point where I was becoming a bit disillusioned |
| 0:04.8 | with it because it felt incomplete to me, at least the way I was practicing it. It felt like |
| 0:09.7 | it wasn't quite fully human, but realizing that I could incorporate this part of this mindful |
| 0:15.6 | part which to me felt like bringing the heart to the head and body of CBT. |

| 1:32.1 | special chat for me, and I know what it will be for you too. Seth is deeply sensitive, deeply |
| 1:37.8 | thoughtful human being. It's been a pleasure to call him my friend for a couple of years now, |
| 1:43.2 | and I just find his writings really nuanced, but also they combine typical CBT approaches with |
| 1:52.0 | a whole other level of spirituality that you often won't find in CBT approaches. So I really |
