ACT 1

You Are Not Your Mind

Learn about how your Mind works – and how it often works against you. But by taking more control, you can stop your Mind spoiling things for you.

ACT 2

Facing Up To Life

We often make great efforts to avoid or change things that can’t be changed, and this can make things worse for us. It’s often better to use Acceptance.

ACT 3

Being Mindful

Mindfulness enables us to focus more on the present – and the benefits of this are extremely powerful. Learn how to practice the art of ‘just noticing’.
