Psychological Flexibility: Staying Aligned with Your Values
Psychological flexibility is the ability to stay present and engaged in what matters to you, even when faced with difficult thoughts, feelings, and sensations. It involves staying aligned with your values in challenging moments and taking action based on those values. For example, as a parent, psychological flexibility might mean pausing and responding to your children's fighting with intention and from a place of love. This concept applies to various domains of life, from personal relationships to work and even larger issues like social justice. By practicing psychological flexibility, you can live a more authentic and value-driven life.
