ACT/CBT: Chess Letter & Affirmation (Never Mind Your Mind)
by Reuben Lowe
This session is grounded in Contextual Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), an evolution of traditional CBT that incorporates mindfulness and psychological flexibility. A key approach within this framework is Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which helps us relate to our thoughts in a more open and adaptive way. Through the Letter to My Mind, we explore how to observe thoughts and feelings without getting caught up in their movements—just as the chessboard holds space for all pieces without taking sides. This reflective practice helps us reclaim our energy for what truly matters. The session concludes with a grounding affirmation, reinforcing our ability to create space for our thoughts and respond to life with clarity and purpose.
