Steven C. Hayes: Embracing Psychological Flexibility for a Better Life

Misery is actually our ally, because there's energy in there, there's caring in there, there's motivation in there.
Ever wondered how to stay true to your values even when life gets tough? In this episode of 'The One You Feed', Eric Zimmer sits down with Steven C. Hayes, a pioneer in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Hayes introduces his new book, *A Liberated Mind: How to Pivot Toward What Matters*, and shares practical advice on developing psychological flexibility.
As a Professor of Psychology at The University of Nevada Reno and an author of 43 books, Hayes brings a wealth of knowledge to the table. He explains how psychological flexibility can help you stay present, even in uncomfortable situations, and move towards your goals. This episode is packed with actionable insights, including how to view thoughts as just thoughts through cognitive diffusion.
Whether you're battling addiction, anxiety, or simply want to live a more values-driven life, Hayes' wisdom offers a fresh perspective on mental well-being.
