116. Building a Meaningful, Values-based Life with Dr. Jenna LeJeune
Living a values-based life is different from a goals-oriented one. A values-based life encompasses more than trying to “feel good” or get to a final destination. When you direct your life toward what really matters to you, you will feel an increased sense of meaning and vitality, whatever situation you find yourself in. Values-based living has greater depth and staying power than goals and resolutions. Join Debbie and Dr. Jenna LeJeune, author of Values in Therapy: A Clinician’s Guide to Helping Clients Explore Values, Increase Psychological Flexibility, and Live a More Meaningful Life, for an encouraging discussion about what “living well” really means and how to increase values-based living in yourself and in your clients.Listen and Learn:· What do “values” really mean, and how are they different in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy?· How to disentangle values from morals and goals· Tips for how to explore what “living well” means to you· Why pain deserves appreciation· What to do when you feel like your values conflict with each otherSponsor: Praxis Continuing EducationACT BootCamp® with Steven C.
