Where did we walk this week? Happy New Year! Scott and Jaime start out 2022 by diving into a conversation about what happens when our mind gets stuck. They talked about how fears, anxiety, and the stories we create might allow us to keep the same perceptions that may not allow us to move forward. They then go on to say that the lack of validation from others, the distance from our values and getting rewarded for not moving (like avoiding hard thoughts and challenges) can keep us stuck. But, there is a way out of a stuck mind! PSYCHOLOGICAL FLEXIBILITY. Psychological flexibility is the creation of optional thoughts, which begins with the awareness of our thoughts, being stuck, and what we are doing when we get stuck and we lack flexibility.
Check out our Action Event of the Week to learn how to begin practicing psychological flexibility, TODAY!
ACTion Event of the Week: When something comes up this week that you automatically cling to, take a moment to step back and ask yourself, “Is there another thought here?” Remember, there is no quick fix to trying to figure out things that make us anxious. However, a less flexible mind is more anxious than a flexible one. So why not practice being a little more flexible.
Where do we walk to next?: Next time, on Act To Live, we get down and dirty with, EMOTIONS! Come walk with us!
