Episode 56: Acceptance Commitment Therapy Totem Talks

In this Episode, Mark Smith & Helen Frewin dive into the (relative) deep end of psychology in the work place - and specifically Acceptance and Commitment Therapy or ACT.

ACT gets it name from it's core messages, namely to accept what is out of your personal control, and commit to action that improves what is in your control.  It's a modern mash up of CBT, Mindfulness and a few others.

We once read that Action Commitment Therapy is "A therapy so hard to classify that it has been described as an existential humanistic cognitive behavioural therapy."  

We're not too sure if that is an endorsement or not?  But we're certainly huge fans and would recommend it as an approach to untangling a few of the tricky situations we find ourselves in from time to time.
