The joy of using ACT for an area of long time disturbance

[Guest guest]

I am using ACT regarding being healthy - the value I am choosing to work on.

..... my particular goal - not to eat in the hours following my teaching .... my

short term goal to not eat for an hour after school.

The willingness is a way that allows me to stay with, welcome, and embrace the

pain (in as diffused way as possible) is so important.

This is very similar to the willingness that comes after acceptance. In this

case it is the action that comes earlier in the process ... well before using

values and goals.

Two days .... so far so good. And I realize that a goal is not getting to that

final minute, but the process on the way.
