How to Accept Anxiety: Opening Up to New Options

In this episode, we explore the second component of the ACT Triflex framework for anxiety acceptance: opening up to new possibilities. Learn why considering options when triggered—even without knowing what to do next—is a crucial step in recovery.


Key Points:

  • Understanding the ACT Triflex framework for anxiety acceptance
  • Why mindfulness is essential for breaking automatic responses
  • How psychological flexibility develops through small moments of choice
  • The paradox of opening up to new options
  • Why confusion can actually be a sign of progress
