The ACT Matrix | a simple perspective-taking exercise

The Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) Matrix is a simple perspective taking exercise that is a quick and easy tool to practice and learn how to notice and distinguish between our external space (e.g. our five senses and actions) and internal space (e.g. feelings, urges, thoughts, images, fears..) whilst working towards aligning ourselves to what truly matters to us. It is a wonderful visual tool that can be used in daily life and in clinical settings.
