Putting Psychological Flexibility into Action
Acceptance And Commitment Therapy in Real Life.
I think practicing what I preach is an important part of authenticity in the counseling setting. So, that’s what I am doing!
Here we go!
Psychological Flexibility/ Self-Compassion
In an attempt to practice what I preach; I am taking the week off from blogging. Maybe two. This is a busy time and being psychologically flexible is at the heart of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. I genuinely value spending time pouring energy into publishing blog posts. And, flexibly pursuing values is something that I help others with in therapy. Thus, I also need to live by my own suggestions!
Bringing in some self-compassion and mindfulness here. Listening to my body’s request for a break without being harsh in myself or getting fused to thoughts of laziness.
I’ll let you know how it goes. Have a good couple weeks! I know I will!
As always,
LIVE BETTER!
