And then we'll be working with the triple paradox, some problem solving, relapse prevention, and breakouts and the power of groups. So just to add that in there. To get more information about this group and some other groups, which I can mention in a moment, you can go to feelinggreattherapycenter.com forward slash educational hyphen groups.
And this group will be there as well as our book club, as well as the Five Secrets groups and other educational groups. So that can be one link. You can remember feelinggreattherapycenter.com forward slash educational hyphen groups.
Educational groups, but with a hyphen in between it.
Yes, dash groups, plural.
Yes, through February 26th.
It's on Wednesdays.
Yeah, there's the Feeling Great Book Club, which we've been doing for a few years now, where I'm partnering with the wonderful Heather Clegg. What a fantastic group. teacher, person, and psychiatrist. And that is on Mondays from February 20th.
It's a 12-week group starting either on Mondays at 4 o'clock Pacific time on February 24th for 12 weeks or Wednesdays, February 26th at 8.30 in the morning Pacific time. And that will provide for people in most places in the world to be able to attend.
And this is a wonderful book where people read your book, Feeling Great, which is such a fantastic and clear book with tools for anxiety and depression to break through those to live a more joyful and relaxed life. And we'll do expert demos and you can join smaller breakout groups to practice what you're learning. That's sliding scale. It's $14 a session, but it's sliding scale.
We won't turn away anybody for financial reasons. And that we want to make just really accessible to everyone. So we price it low and even go down from there.
Yeah, it depends on each session, but yeah, generally 30, 35 minutes for the breakout groups. And you're right, each breakout group has a facilitator, which is really cool, which is a treat. And those breakout groups are smaller, maybe six people, maybe eight people, but that's kind of the maximum. So it's beautiful because people can then become vulnerable.
We keep the same breakout groups each week over these three months, and then people start to develop... more trust and security in that group and they can practice some of the techniques. We also practice the five secrets during those groups as a check-in, which also lets people become more vulnerable with each other and develop trust.
So people develop friendships and stay in touch long after the Feeling Great book club stops.
Yeah, I think it's like when, yeah, it's $168 total, $14 a group, which is, yeah, whatever that is an hour, it's 80-minute group sessions. Yeah.
Right, right. Yeah, so in our groups, I think there is something about groups that can be really healing, having support from other people, being able to kind of chew through these ideas in your book. I love, David, when you write, and this is true with your app as well, you challenge people to do exercises and really engage with the material, and that's essential.
And now we can have this big group where you can see demos of people For example, the double standard technique and other techniques. And then you can go into the small groups and you can like work on ideas. You can share things about yourself with your peers, which is a little bit different than working with a therapist. So I think it can be its own thing. You can do it yourself without therapy.
You could also be seeing a therapist and do this to supercharge your therapy. Any of that can work well. The other thing we're going to do is we're going to have some app-specific breakout groups. So for people who are using your Feeling Great app, which is a fantastic app, by the way, we're going to have specific breakout groups.
So some portion of our breakout groups will be just for people using the app. So then they can work on that with other people and share their experiences with the app.
Thank you, David. What beautiful words. That's so generous and kind of you, and I really appreciate that.
Yes, we did. What's that like? That was fantastic. People love the group and they absolutely love the app. They felt really connected to the group. The chatbot of the app that gave great empathy. And I think the learning modules are fantastic. So having them, it was a little bit like the book club. We structured it a little bit similarly. We did some demos.
