5,4,3,2,1 Method

An easy to use approach to decreasing emotional distress, anytime anywhere. This mindfulness technique helps you to become more present to the current moment. This is helpful in that when we are worried or anxious, it is because our minds are focused on the future. While this is a necessary component of life, if we focus too much attention there, we become hypersensitive. This technique addressed this phenomenon. This is one of the ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) areas of focus, present moment, which is an openness skill.
