PSYCHOLOGIST EXPLAINS: Values from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

In this video I attempt to tackle the big topic that is Values from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Values is one of the 6 core principles of ACT and an important part of the framework but also in life. Defining our values help us connect with what is important to us and set meaningful directions in life. This is especially important when we feel adrift or that life isn't as meaningful as it could be. It is a long one so I've included some time codes for different parts of the video below: 0:00 Introduction 0:28 Definition of Values 1:37 The Compass Metaphor 2:28 Questions to Clarify Values 3:03 Goals are Different to Values 3:17 Values Are More Empowering than Goals 3:55 Examples of Goals Versus Value 4:41 What Values are Not in ACT 7:46 5 Key Points About Values 11:56 Tightening the Definition Further 12:28 Clarifying Values 13:01 Getting to Values from Goals 13:35 Two Kids in the Car Metaphor Thank you for watching!
