CBT|ACT: Rain On Window & Reflection (Never Mind Your Mind)

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. The Rain on the Window metaphor helps us shift our attention to the world beyond these thoughts. Through reflection and practice, we cultivate the ability to observe thoughts without getting lost in them. The session concludes with a grounding affirmation, empowering us to step forward with clarity and intention.

I have made some pretty big strides after your ACT mini-course. And from this meditation I am grateful to have been reminded that we are all looking out the window... at another window. Only the second one can be washed, and I'm much more likely to do so when the first one is simply observed.

How wonderful to listen to this affirmation again ! Just at a time when my thoughts were taking over my mind driving me to a state of negative thinking about myself I rembered all that you had said in the NMYM course “The rain is no problem…..” ! Thank you Reuben for always being there to remind me ❤️💕.

Always good to affirm what we think about we bring about. Thanks Reuben 🙏🏻

This analogy is effective and I'll be trying it immediately. Thank you

Good stuff! CBT and CPT surely are maturing and enjoying wider application…
