Mindfulness and Inner Awareness Practices
Get Out of Your Mind and Into Your Life
by Steven Hayes
Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) is a new, scientifically based psychotherapy that takes a fresh look at why we suffer and even what it means to be mentally healthy. Trying to control painful experiences causes suffering and long-term problems. The ACT process hinges on this distinction between pain and suffering. As you work through this book, you’ll learn to let go of your struggle against pain, assess your values, and then commit to acting in ways that further those values.
