"ACT is like a roadmap to a more fulfilled life. It's about learning to dance with your emotions, rather than fighting against them." -Dr. Maya Patel

 

"Acceptance is like opening the door to self-compassion. When we accept our struggles, we pave the way for healing." -Dr. Mark Thompson

 

"Adaptation is the bridge between acceptance and achievement. It's where we find the strength to rewrite our narratives." -Dr. Lisa Chen

 

"Achievement is the outcome of commitment. It's about turning aspirations into actions, even in the face of challenges." -Dr. James Carter

 

“Repentance also requires change, which, at times, can be uncomfortable. But joy and comfort are not the same thing. Sin—including the sin of complacency—limits our joy.” -Craig C. Christensen

 

“When we choose to repent, we choose to change! We allow the Savior to transform us into the best version of ourselves. We choose to grow spiritually and receive joy—the joy of redemption in Him. When we choose to repent, we choose to become more like Jesus Christ!” -Russell M. Nelson

 

Leaves on a Stream Exercise:

During the leaves on a stream exercise, you will visualize yourself resting near a stream. Whenever

thoughts enter your mind, you will imagine placing them atop a leaf, and watching as they float away.

Instead of seeing the world from “inside” your thoughts, you will take a step back and view them from

afar. By doing so, you will gain perspective on your thoughts and feelings, reducing their power.

 

Approach all your thoughts and emotions with equal acceptance, regardless of whether they are pleasant, unpleasant, or neutral. The objective is to cultivate awareness of your inner experiences, without the intention of improving them or changing them.

 

With consistent dedication, the "leaves on a stream" exercise will progressively become more effortless and beneficial.
