In episode 412, join me from the serene Basque country as I escape the summer heat of Barcelona. If you're struggling with OCD or anxiety, this episode is especially for you. 

Today's focus is on a powerful tool from Acceptance Commitment Therapy: the bus driver metaphor. This metaphor helps in managing intrusive thoughts, a significant aspect of OCD. Drawing inspiration from sports and role models, we explore how to lean into discomfort and overcome challenges by staying committed to our values.

Imagine yourself as a bus driver, dealing with noisy and annoying passengers (your intrusive thoughts). Learn how to handle these passengers without letting them disrupt your journey, and discover the importance of focusing on your goals and values. This episode offers practical insights into managing OCD and emphasizes the importance of acceptance and staying present.
