À propos de cet audio
"In all my years studying personal growth, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is one of the most useful tools I've ever come across, and in this book, Dr. Hayes describes it with more depth and clarity than ever before." (Mark Manson, number one New York Times best-selling author of The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck)
Life is not a problem to be solved. ACT shows how we can live full and meaningful lives by embracing our vulnerability and turning toward what hurts.
In this landmark audiobook, the originator and pioneering researcher into Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) lays out the psychological flexibility skills that make it one of the most powerful approaches research has yet to offer. These skills have been shown to help even where other approaches have failed. Science shows that they are useful in virtually every area - mental health (anxiety, depression, substance abuse, eating disorders, PTSD); physical health (chronic pain, dealing with diabetes, facing cancer); social processes (relationship issues, prejudice, stigma, domestic violence); and performance (sports, business, diet, exercise).
How does psychological flexibility help? We struggle because the problem-solving mind tells us to run from what causes us fear and hurt. But we hurt where we care. If we run from a sense of vulnerability, we must also run from what we care about. By learning how to liberate ourselves, we can live with meaning and purpose, along with our pain when there is pain.
Although that is a simple idea, it resists our instincts and programming. The flexibility skills counter those ingrained tendencies. They include noticing our thoughts with curiosity, opening to our emotions, attending to what is in the present, learning the art of perspective taking, discovering our deepest values, and building habits based around what we deeply want.
Beginning with the epiphany Steven Hayes had during a panic attack, this audiobook is a powerful narrative of scientific discovery filled with moving stories as well as advice for how we can put flexibility skills to work immediately. Hayes shows how allowing ourselves to feel fully and think freely moves us toward commitment to what truly matters to us. Finally, we can live lives that reflect the qualities we choose.

Ce que les critiques en disent
"In all my years studying personal growth, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is one of the most useful tools I've ever come across, and in this book, Dr. Hayes describes it with more depth and clarity than ever before." (Mark Manson, number one New York Times best-selling author of The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck)
"Steven Hayes possesses an extraordinary trifecta of skills: A brilliant theoretical and research psychologist, he’s also a compassionate clinician and a wonderfully engaging writer. A Liberated Mind is packed with jewels of insight and information that could change the way we deal with suffering as individuals and as a society. A compelling, revelatory read." (Martha Beck PhD, author of Finding Your Own North Star)
"Written for a very broad audience, Dr. Hayes is able to clearly translate the science and clinical complexity of this treatment into concrete guiding principles for people's lives. These principles not only apply to psychological suffering, but also to physical illnesses, relationships, corporations, societies, and cultures. The book is honest, compassionate, and profoundly insightful. It will transform your life by liberating your mind." (Stefan G. Hofmann, PhD, professor of psychology at Boston University)

Sort of wish I'd bought the book or had access to the more diagram-y and exercise-y sections in visual form; narrator does fine, recommend listening to Steve on TED or elsewhere to get a sense of his voice.
Listened once so far, now have to go back n write down exercises one at a time and use them.
Essential skills for future of being being better.

In the first part of the book, Steven Hayes describes how his personal struggles with anxiety and panic disorder yielded key insights into human psychology that would eventually lead him to develop Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). ACT is an evidence-based approach that has had a profound and lasting impact and changed the face of psychotherapy. For years Steve struggled with anxiety. This fight gradually engulfed his personal and professional life. Then one night, in the middle of his most frightening panic attack, Steve discovered that as much as his mind could urge him to rush to the emergency room, it couldn’t make him do it. An observer part of him noticed the ongoing drama of the panic attack, and chose to regain control of his life rather than continue surrendering it to anxiety. As a clinical psychologist and researcher, Steve made it his life’s purpose to investigate what psychological processes his insight were rooted in and how to turn them into a new science-based path to human liberation.
Over the next forty years, Steve became the originator of a new evidence-based approach to cognitive-behavioral therapy. He also helped develop Relational Frame Theory (RFT), a new way to understand human language and cognition. RFT describes what makes language a double-edged sword. We owe it both our uniquely human ability to control the world outside our skin, and our uniquely human ability to suffer—even in the midst of plenty. In a highly relatable way, weaving personal recollections, illuminating accounts of research and experiential explorations, Steve guides his readers through how our minds’ abilities to relate everything to everything undergirds much mental suffering. Crucially, he demonstrates how traditional methods such as trying to understand the historical roots of our difficulties, regulating emotion or disputing unhelpful thought patterns can get us stuck. Far from the path to liberation, these attempts more often entangle us in rigid storytelling and emotional avoidance. They can make what we try not to think about ever more mentally present while diminishing our ability to lead a vital and fulfilling life. ACT in these energy-draining traps, readers are invited to discover six crucial pivots that can help transform the energy of the struggle into the source of a vital life.
Lest you think that RFT is but a new fad in psychology, it has over 30 years of research behind it demonstrating it can help children with autism and development disabilities acquire crucial language, perspective-taking and empathy skills. It can also help increase IQ through the deliberate training of the basic relations that RFT shows underlie much of complex human cognitive abilities.
The second part of the book takes readers onto a practical exploration of six pivots that can help our lives move from stuckness to flexibility. Rooted in six fundamental human yearnings, these pivots are key to liberating our minds from their mental shackles. By learning to distance from our mental chatter and better notice where particular thoughts patterns would take us, we can meet our yearning for coherence—not at the level of dry logic as our minds would push us to, but at the more fundamental level of what truly works for our lives. Through acquiring a broader sense of self, free from the narrow limitations of ego and connecting to our fellow humans, we can meet our yearning for belonging. By compassionately accepting difficult experience, we can meet our yearning for feeling. By mindfully focusing our attention to the present moment and what matters, we can meet our yearning for orientation. By contacting and embodying our most deeply held values, we can meet our yearning to create meaning. Finally, by deliberately engaging in actions in line with our personal values, we can meet our yearning for control and competence. Together, these six skills combine to help us pivot toward psychological flexibility, which turns out to be a meta-skill lying at the core of optimal human functioning.
The third part of the book illustrates how to apply the skills thus far practiced to the broad range of life challenges: adopting and keeping healthy behaviors, facing up to mental disorders, nurturing relationships, helping our children grow, combating abuse and overcoming prejudice. It also shows how to use ACT to improve work and sports performance, overcome procrastination and foster learning. ACT can also help nurture spirituality, cultivate forgiveness and face up to chronic illness, disability and cancer. The book concludes with how ACT could contribute to social transformation.
A Liberated Mind is the most comprehensive exploration of ACT so far, written in the distinct voice of its main originator. It explores ACT’s scientific roots and place in the broader scientific field in a language anyone can understand. Meaningfully, the book offers a deeply personal account of Steve Hayes’s personal and scientific path to liberation from the mind-stoked suffering that makes up our human condition. Steve’s heart resonates in every page. I have known Steve for over 12 years and reading the book felt like an intimate conversation with this towering figure of 21st century psychology.
My only gripe, having been a participant to a number of Steve's workshops and conference is that the book was not read by him. However, the reader is very good and brings the text to life in such a way that after a couple of chapters it felt like a conversation with Steven Hayes himself.
