mBIT as an Experiential Coaching and Therapeutic Approach in Stress Management and Resilience Building – a series of case studies

Journal Title: Journal of Experiential Psychotherapy - Year 2018, Vol 21, Issue 4

Abstract

Introduction: This paper discusses using an mBraining approach in the management of stress, including building longer term resilience in order to avoid ongoing problems and recurrence of prior symptoms. By the provision of several case studies, we propose the effectiveness of this approach in practice and outline the opportunity to utilize mBIT alongside other existing and established therapeutic approaches. Objectives: This paper aims to discuss the perceived value of the mBIT (multiple Brain Integration Techniques) approach as a complementary technique in the applications of psychotherapy, counseling, coaching and overall personal optimization and development, with specific focus on reducing unwanted stress and building resilience over time. Methods: mBIT approach methodology and brief literature review. Results: The discussed case studies suggest a demonstrable value in introducing mBIT into the optimal management of stress and building of personal resilience. Conclusions: We advocate that mBIT can be successfully used as a complementary approach to reduce the day to day experience of stress and to change the way clients process stressors in the longer term.
