Micro-Talk: Holding Minds w/ Compassion

This session is rooted in Contextual Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), an evolution of traditional CBT that integrates mindfulness and psychological flexibility. Within this framework, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps us unhook from unhelpful thought patterns and engage more fully with life. In this thought-provoking micro-talk, Reuben explores how our Stone Age brains, wired for survival, still influence our modern thoughts and behaviors. By understanding the mind’s ancient programming, we can meet it with compassion rather than resistance, and begin to live with more awareness, intention, and freedom.
