The ability to be fully present in the moment without judgment orresistance Being more aware of the present moment allows a person toexperience: Freedom from suffering Research shows that increased mindfulness can help in the followingareas: Self-awareness Emotional Reactivity Anger/Stress Management Anxiety/Depression Anxiety/Panic Disorders Insomnia 2016 Vay11
Core Mindfulness: Three States of MindEmotion MindReasonable/Rational MindWise Mind 2016 Vay12
Three States of Mind: Emotion Mind Emotion mind is ruled by feelings and urges When a person is in Emotion Mind, their responses arecontrolled by their emotions and they tend to act onimpulsesEmotion Mind is not bad and it can bebeneficial; we must mediate it withawareness and presence.-Strazar, 2009 2016 Vay13
Three States of Mind: Emotion Mind When we are controlled by an emotional state, thenEmotion Mind takes over. When we impulsively act the waywe feel it can lead to out of control and unsafe behavior,which creates chaos, hurt feelings and suffering. When weact on strong emotions, our vision of what is actuallyhappening is blurred and can cause a strong response(stress response: fight/flight/freeze). 2016 Vay14
Three States of Mind: Reasonable Mind Facts and logic is the framework to Reasonable mind Reasonable Mind is important in learning new skills Helps you define a problem and determine a solution Reasonable Mind is much easier when you are healthy,strong, and feeling good When you are tired, vulnerable, weak, Emotion Mindtakes over 2016 Vay15
Three States of Mind: Wise Mind Wise mind is the active integration of emotion mind andreasonable mind Making a decision – thinking it through and LETTING GO Wise mind blends the logic of reasonable mind with theintense emotions of emotion Mind to create a calm state ofmind When you can act skillfully and relate what you know to astressful situation, you are acting in Wise Mind As you learn skills, you begin to act intuitively out of WiseMind 2016 Vay16

Distress Tolerance Sometimes emotions become so overwhelming that they causepeople to lose control and act impulsively. Dysfunctionalbehaviors are often uncontrollable responses to emotional painor attempts to relieve suffering. Dysfunctional behaviors areshort-term solutions and can undermine long-term goals. Distress tolerance skills are ways of surviving terrible situationswithout resorting to dysfunctional behaviors that will make thesituation worse. These skills help us experience, tolerate, andaccept emotional pain in order to build a life with less sufferingand more acceptance of the world as it is. 2016 Vay20
Why Bother? Why Bother Tolerating Painful Feelings and Urges? Pain is a part of life and can’t always be avoided If you can’t deal with your pain, you may act impulsively When you act impulsively, you may end up hurting yourselfor someone else 2016 Vay21

Distress Tolerance Reality Acceptance 5 ways of responding when a problem occursSolve the problem2. Change how you feel about the problem3. Accept the problem4. Stay miserable5. Make it worse Radical acceptance Turning the mind Willingness versus Willfulness Half-Smiling and Willing Hands1. 2016 Vay47
Accepting Reality Basic principles for accepting reality include: Radical acceptance Turning the mind Willingness versus WillfulnessThe main difficulties clients have with the skills include: Accepting something without necessarily approving of it Expecting acceptance to make the pain go away Accepting there's a cause for everything even if the causeis not apparent. 2016 Vay48
3 Principles of Radically accepting a situation1) Reality is as it is:Accepting reality in the present moment is an important part of building a life worth living.This is incredibly difficult when life is painful because none of us want pain. Through pain is anunavoidable part of life suffering we attached to it is avoidable.2) Everything has a cause:Another step toward radical acceptance is remembering that everything has a cause. This ideamay be obvious in some situations. Most of us know that a sunburn is caused by staying in thesun too long or that neglecting maintenance leads to major car repairs down the road. Butsometimes things in life are so painful and unwanted that it's difficult to see that, they too, havecauses. Accepting that everything has a cause even if you don't know what it is can help toreduce the suffering.3) Life can be worth living even if there's pain:Pain doesn't make life worthless. Often we try to turn from pain is if it will make life better butin fact it does not. It's easier to see that life can be worth living if we live our lives in the presentmoment. Many of us spend most of our time in the past and future instead of focusing onwhat's going on right now. This adds the pain of the past and future onto our pain in thepresent moment which makes things feel heavier than they would be if we lived only in thepresent. 2016 Vay49
Turning the Mind Turning the mind is the second of the three basic principles of accepting realityChoosing to radically accept isn't a single decision but one that youmust make again and againTo Turn the Mind you must constantly make an active choice to exceptin a very literal wayRemember that Turning the Mind toward acceptance reduces sufferingto ordinary painThink of acceptance like any skill - it gets easier with practice. Topractice turning the mind in life means that when you come to a fork inthe road, you deliberately choose to accept over and over and over,remembering that acceptance reduces suffering and helps build a lifeworth living. 2016 Vay50
3 steps for turning the mind1. Notice you're not accepting The first step is to notice that you're not accepting. Generally the tip off is that you are angry, bitter, or annoyed. You might find yourselfengaging in certain thoughts and behaviors or questioning again and again "why me"?Also notice when you find yourself using words like "should have" or "shouldn't have"if so you're judging the situation.2. Make an inner commitment: Once you notice that you're not excepting reality as it is in the present moment try totell yourself that you are going to eventually accept the situation as it is. It can behelpful to literally tell yourself that you're going to turn your mind toward acceptanceand then feel yourself make the transition, for even just a moment.3. Do it again: The last step is to do it over and over again once you've turned the mind it may bounceright back to unacceptance. You need to walk yourself through the three steps forturning the mind again. 2016 Vay51
Willingness vs. WillfulnessWillingness versus willfulnessis the third of the three basicprinciples of acceptingreality.A critical part of learningreality acceptance is beingable to distinguish betweenwillingness and willfulness. 2016 Vay52
WillingnessWillingness: Willingness is really an attitude toward life. It involves realizing thatyou are connected to and part of life. When you were willing youwere agreeing to be a part of life. You allow the world to be what it isand you make a commitment to active participation in that reality. Willingness is not "approval" or "lying down and letting yourselfget walked on" but it does require doing what is needed in thecurrent situation or moment. 2016 Vay53
WillfulnessWillfulness: Willfulness is the refusal to accept your connection to life. It involvessaying no to life and to reality. When you are willful you impose yourwill on reality by trying to fix everything or rejecting what is neededin the current situation or moment.It's like throwing a fit or sitting onyour hands when action is called for. 2016 Vay54
