Other themes explored in the training include CBT connections between serotonin and self-esteem as well as CBT tools extrapolated from the book "The Six Pillars of Self-Esteem" by Nathaniel Branden, considered the "father of self-esteem." Additionally, CBT and the power of critical thinking will be discussed. Lastly, ideas/tools from the book "Thinking Fast and Slow" by the Nobel Prize recipient Daniel Kahneman will be presented.
