Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), a form of third-wave cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), adopts perhaps the simplest or most direct approach. It counsels that when we are anxious, what’s important is to become mindful of how we think, and then reorient our attention to what is most constructively important in our lives. ACT argues that people tend to handle emotional distress in an understandable, yet ultimately self-defeating way: when we get upset, we assume that it’s best to try and rid ourselves of the distressing feelings, in a similar manner to trying to overcome some external problem.
