Summary

In addition to reviewing the SCAMP domains of the ComB Model, this chapter is focused on awareness – awareness of the specific BFRB domains while asking the reader to notice relevant BFRB patterns and encouraging them to become aware of their body and mind at any given moment. The Awareness Form is introduced to the reader. Readers are asked to practice mindfulness exercises daily, to fill out the Awareness Form each day, and to begin to notice important aspects of their behavior that will be critical to formulation of an intervention plan.
