What Is ACT?

We are often told we should be happy all the time, but life includes pain, stress, self-doubt, and difficult emotions. The more we push these feelings away, the stronger they seem to get. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) offers a path that doesn’t involve fighting negative thoughts but rather making peace with them while moving toward a meaningful life. ACT is a mindfulness-based therapy that helps you:

🔷 Accept difficult emotions instead of struggling against them​       

 

🔷 Unhook from negative thoughts so they have less control over you​

 

🔷 Reconnect with what truly matters—your values, purpose, and goals​

 

🔷 Take action to build the life you want, even in the face of challenges
