Thoughts Are Not Facts | ACT Defusion Exercises

Hey All, Todd Schmenk here, and here is one of my more recent favorite exercises to help you both defuse from a thought (or a group of thoughts) a well as experience the self-as-context (along with being present to boot!)

It is a simple exercise which uses your hands to lay out two lists of experiences so that you can compare noes and make better decisions. I have found that this often helps those struggling with unwanted thoughts, recurring thoughts, and the sense that they might not make the right decision again.

It's short, but it is a good tool to have, and you will always have this set of tools with you.
