Beyond Survival Mode: Living Your Values Through Recovery's Toughest Challenges When life gets turned upside down in recovery, what keeps you moving forward? In this powerful episode of The Addicted Mind Plus, hosts Duane Oline and Eric Osterlind explore how reconnecting with your values can be the anchor you need when emotional pain threatens to pull you under. We've all been there – stuck in survival mode, consumed by shame, fear, or anger after a setback in recovery. The hardest part? Feeling disconnected from yourself, like you're just going through the motions of someone else's life. This episode dives into what value-based living really means and why it matters so much on your healing journey. Drawing from the work of Dr. Steven Hayes (founder of ACT Therapy) and Brené Brown, Duane and Eric offer practical wisdom on how values serve as your "North Star" during life's storms. Unlike goals that can be checked off, values are ongoing qualities that give your life meaning and direction. The hosts emphasize that valued living isn't about perfection – it's about direction, not destination. Even small steps toward what matters count as success. They also remind listeners that values can evolve over time, especially during challenging experiences that clarify what truly matters. This episode includes a step-by-step walkthrough of a worksheet designed to help you reconnect with your values when you're struggling. From identifying challenges to taking small, intentional actions that realign you with what matters most, Duane and Eric provide a practical roadmap for living authentically even when it's hard. Download The Worksheet Whether you're facing a relapse, dealing with intense emotions, or simply trying to hold your life together, this conversation offers compassionate guidance on using your values as a compass to find your way forward again.

Have you heard of ACT - Acceptance and Commitment Therapy? Brian Middleton, BCBA, Father, and neurodivergent human, joins me to share how he uses ACT for kids with autism, even those that are nonverbal and nonvocal.     

Psychotherapist, Truth Teller, and advocate for being a "difficult" woman, Tonya Lester joins Chelsea 9:10 minutes in to talk about the upside of being difficult (the good kind of difficult, that is), what's worse than heartbreak (spoiler: it doesn't involve a relationship ending), the masks we wear and the self we forfeit in order to attract and keep partners, freeing ourselves from the spiral of "if-only" I had been/done/or behaved like XYZ, the healing powers of curiosity, self-compassion, and vowing to use our past to change our future, internal family systems methodology, the motive of the mean voice, how shock absorbers in relationships always finish last, the power of self-possession,  "kind narcissism," and why presenting ourselves as fully — vulnerably and accurately — as soon as possible is the best way to set ourselves up for a love that aligns with our true nature and intentions.Psst: I loved this episode!Tonya Lester:Website: https://www.tonyalester.comServices: https://www.tonyalester.com/servicesBlog: https://www.tonyalester.com/blogPsychology Today Articles: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/contributors/tonya-lester-lcswFree Quiz on Your Difficulty Level: https://assessments.catchengine.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tonyalesterpsychotherapyTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@tonyalesterlcswChelsea Leigh Trescott:Website: https://breakupward.comEmail: chelsea@breakupward.comAdvice Column: https://www.huffpost.comWriting: https://thoughtcatalog.com/chelsea-leigh-trescottInstagram:  https://www.instagram.com/thankyouheartbreakFacebook:  https://www.facebook.com/musings

In this podcast, we provide an in-depth explanation of two popular forms of therapy used in treating behavioral and mental health issues: Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). We discuss the origins of both therapies, their underlying principles, and their respective goals. ABA is a form of therapy that uses behavioral reinforcement techniques to shape positive behaviors and reduce negative ones. ACT, on the other hand, is a form of therapy that emphasizes acceptance of uncomfortable thoughts and emotions while focusing on taking action in line with one's values. We explore the specific techniques used in each therapy, as well as their applications in various contexts, including autism spectrum disorder, anxiety, and depression. Finally, we compare and contrast the two therapies, highlighting their unique strengths and limitations. This podcast provides a comprehensive overview of ABA and ACT therapies, offering insights into how they can be used to improve mental health and well-being.

Toen mijn vader 10 jaar geleden overleed ben ik niet goed gaan rouwen, ik heb er uiteindelijk 8 jaar over gedaan om het een plek te kunnen geven.Deze week moest ik naar 3 begrafenissen, dit zette me aan het denken, had ik de kennis 10 jaar geleden maar die ik nu heb.Ik deel 4 rouw taken vanuit accaptence and commitment therapy + eigen ervaring om jouw te helpen met rouwen.Maar rouwen doe je niet alleen wanneer je een belangrijk persoon verliest, ook wanneer er relaties verbroken worden, je afstand neemt van bepaalde patronen die ongezond voor je zijn kun je gebruik maken van deze rouwtaken.Hopelijk heb je er iets aan.Liefs LiselotteDe awesome aDvocado

In this weeks episode we tackle an existential question that many of us can't seem to find the answer to— what is happiness and how do we attain it? Or better yet, how do we foster it ourselves? We start of with an explanation of hedonic adaptation, a concept that helps us to understand why happiness is so fleeting and move into the ways in which we can prolong joyous moments, but also learn to live in contentment.

Today, we will hear from Dr. Michael Keesler from Fox and Fern Mental Health to learn about acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). This year more than ever, we are in situations beyond our control and ACT works to cultivate psychological flexibility so that we can control our thoughts and emotions. Listen to this episode to learn about how we can live harmoniously with our thoughts by incorporating ACT therapy in our lives. Dr. Keesler is a clinical and forensic neuropsychologist practicing in Greater Philadelphia. He is affiliated with both Drexel University and the University of Pennsylvania, but owns and operates his own practice: Fox and Ferns Mental Health. Though classically trained in neuropsychological evaluation, the 2020 pandemic has seen more and more of Dr. Keesler's work shifting away from forensic and clinical assessment and more into talk therapy as the demand is ever increasing. Dr. Keesler identifies as an "act" therapist.

Lisa W. Coyne, PhD, spoke with Psychcast host Lorenzo Norris, MD, about strategies that can be used to help children and adolescents deal with anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorder amid COVID-19. Dr. Coyne, a clinical psychologist, is founder of the McLean OCD Institute for Children and Adolescents in Belmont, Mass. She also is director with the New England Center for OCD and Anxiety in Cambridge, Mass. Dr. Coyne disclosed receiving royalties from New Harbinger and Little Brown Publishing. Dr. Norris has no disclosures. Take-home points Much of the anxiety experienced by some children and adolescents is caused by uncertainty about the future. Some children and adolescents also are watching cases of COVID-19 tick up across the country and are concerned about the mixed messages they are receiving from adults. Different cultures exist around belief in science. Rates of anxiety in general are on the rise as are demands for more mental health services. Clinicians are supporting each other to support their patients. Anxiety in young patients might present as disruptions in sleep and appetite. Look for an increase in oppositional behavior. Young patients with anxiety also might resist going to bed. Clinicians also are seeing increases in depressed mood and nonsuicidal self-injury. Acceptance and commitment therapy, a type of cognitive-behavioral therapy that is exposure based, is a strategy that can be used to help patients develop psychological flexibility and put distance between themselves and their thoughts.
