Defusion From Thoughts Mindfulness Practice

Defusion is a mindfulness technique that is useful for dealing with unhelpful thoughts such as painful or traumatic memories, disturbing images, fears, or negative beliefs. The aim is to simply observe the thought rather than becoming a victim to it. Defusion also helps by adding things to the thought — or 'playing' with it, so that the words and pictures no longer have an unwanted emotional response.

A wonderfully creative way to let seemingly powerfull thoughts become less influential. Thank you! 🙏

Thank you!

Really enjoyed this, I’m coming back to this meditation. It’s a great supplement to some DBT skills I’m working on. Thank you

Just excellent!
