Therapeutic strategies that increase acceptance of one's life circumstances, and the thoughts that clog up one's mind, and the struggle with symptoms that promotes avoidance will lead to increased psychological flexibility.

This allows for the mindful actions that will lead to a healthy and meaningful life.
