Our Story

In 2004, starting out with audio CDs, Dr Alastair Dobbin, a GP and Dr Sheila Ross, a health promotion specialist, teamed up to create the Positive Mental Training programme for mental health and recovery. It was developed from a Swedish Olympic Sports performance programme with a positive self-development focus, rather than a clinical illness-based approach.

It has been shown in research to build positive emotions and good psychological functioning, elements which according to Self Determination Theory underpin self-esteem and intrinsic motivation.

Now in the Feeling Good App, it is recommended for use by NHS Borders & NHS Lothian, Public Health England ‘Every Mind Matters’ campaign and is accredited by NHS Digital Apps library.

Alastair and Sheila continue to develop and research Positive Mental Training, growing its use in many fields of health & social care. The Positive Mental Training approach underpins all the modules in the Feeling Good Apps.
