Psychological Flexibility Model

The Psychological Flexibility Model refers to the ability to stay present, open, and adaptable when facing difficult thoughts, feelings, or situations. Instead of avoiding discomfort, a psychologically flexible person acknowledges their experiences without being overwhelmed by them and chooses actions aligned with their values. This adaptability helps improve mental well-being, reduce stress, and promote resilience. Essentially, it’s about balancing acceptance of your internal experiences with effective action, enabling you to respond thoughtfully rather than react impulsively to life's challenges.
