Yes, we are talking about Urge Surfing - one of the most fundamental DBT skills. When we get caught up in a difficult moment, it may feel like it’s going to last forever. But any emotion comes and goes, and it makes it a whole lot easier when it’s met with awareness and curiosity, not resistance or judgment.

DBT is different from many other therapeutic approaches in that the focus is on behavior first. Changing the behavior is that turning point that triggers the change everywhere else.

Not to say that it is easy… but it is effective. What’s the one small change you can make to see the difference in your life?

🦋 The DBT dialectic 🦋

So many of us get stuck thinking we have to change who we are in order to get better. But real growth happens when we hold both truths at once: I am enough exactly as I am right now, AND I’m allowed to change.

Save this for days when self acceptance is particularly challenging. You don’t have to fix yourself first to be worthy and to love yourself ✨

Today begins daylight savings time, when clocks will spring forward one hour. This means you will lose one hour of sleep in morning and sunrise and sunset will shift to later.

However, it also signals the beginning of spring, which is traditionally a time to reset. A time for new beginnings. What will your new beginning be?
