Attention Training consists of simple, 5-minute training sessions, which you complete once a day for four days. The programme aims to make it less likely that you will be drawn towards alcohol.
Much of what we do is driven by where we focus our attention. Focusing too much on one thing can sometimes have negative consequences. If your attention is always drawn towards alcohol, for example, you'll will find it difficult to limit your intake. This is known as a cognitive bias.
Cognitive biases can distort our thoughts and behaviour, sometimes leading to depression, addiction and other disorders.
Attention training aims to change these biases.
The result? It becomes easier for you to make positive changes that help you feel better overall.
